“Is it a fairy tale you’re hoping for? Prepare yourself for so much more.” So says the opening moments of the newly released trailer for The Huntsman: Winter’s War from Universal Pictures.
Chris Hemsworth returns in the prequel to 2012’s Snow White and the Huntsman that tells the story of how Hemsworth became the titular character and also how The Evil Queen became so evil.
Did you know she had a sister who was even more devilish?
Yup, that’s The Ice Queen, played with ferocity by Emily Blunt in this first trailer for the film that lands in theaters April 22, 2016.
Joining Hemsworth in his fight as The Warrior is Jessica Chastain, who appears to be a love interest as well.
Before The Evil Queen battled The Huntsman and Snow White, she was betrayed by her sister and The Huntsman: Winter’s Tale follows that thrilling story and lets us know why Theron’s character is just so darn evil.
The film is helmed by Cedric Nicolas-Troyan, and is produced by Joe Roth (Maleficent).
