'The Huntsman: Winter's War' News: Charlize Theron and Emily Blunt Revealed in Trailer as Evil Sisters
The trailer for the upcoming movie "The Huntsman: Winter's War" has been released, revealing Charlize Theron and Emily Blunt in their icy garbs.
"The Huntsman: Winter's War" is expected to be the sequel to the previously released Snow White cinematic adaptation called "The Huntsman."
Theron is expected to reprise her role as Queen Ravenna, who played the villain in the previous movie. She will be joined by her sister Freya, who is played by Emily Blunt. The trailer revealed that Freya has powers that manipulate ice. With that, the two are expected to cause trouble.
Meanwhile, Chris Hemsworth will be reprising his role as the Huntsman. It was revealed that he will be trying to take down the evil Queen's army. He will be joined by Jessica Chastain, who is expected to play a warrior, as well as his love interest.
The synopsis of the movie reads, "Long before the evil Queen Ravenna (Theron) was thought vanquished by Snow White's blade, she watched silently as her sister, Freya (Blunt), suffered a heartbreaking betrayal and fled their kingdom. With Freya's ability to freeze any enemy, the young ice queen has spent decades in a remote wintry palace raising a legion of deadly huntsmen — including Eric (Hemsworth) and warrior Sara (Chastain) — only to find that her prized two defied her one demand: Forever harden your hearts to love."
However, Freya will then reunite with her sister after she learns that Ravenna is able to resurrect herself. With that, they bring evil back into the kingdom. As said in the synopsis, "Now, their amassing army shall prove undefeatable…unless the banished huntsmen who broke their queen's cardinal rule can fight their way back to one another."
"The Huntsman: Winter's War" is expected to release in theaters on April 2016.
