Just how bad was Kristen Stewart's performance in the adaptation of the Snow White children's tale called “Snow White and Huntsman?” Bad enough that they cut her out of the sequel and they are making the new movie about the Huntsman rather than about Snow White.

Newsday reports that the action will no longer focus on her character, but will instead focus on the Huntsman, played by Chris Hemsworth, the actor made famous by his role in the “Thor” movies. Oh, and Charlize Theron's Evil Queen will also be making a comeback, just because Charlize was awesome as the bad guy for once.

The sequel is going to be called “The Huntsman” and will released on April 26, 2016. The original movie, was a hit at the box office, but for Kristen Stewart it was nothing but bad news. When the movie came out in 2012, she was still involved with Robert Pattinson, her “Twilight” co-star.

During filming, she got involved with Rupert Sanders, the director of the movie, and this resulted in a major scandal, as well as a major blow to her image from which he hasn't been able to fully recover since.

Stewart was forced to come out and confess in an open letter that she had indeed cheated on Robert Pattinson with Rupert Sanders, a married man himself. She apologized to everyone for “a momentary indiscretion.”

Just in case you're wondering, Sanders also won't be returning to the director's chair for the sequel, that role being given by the studio to Frank Darabont, famous for his work on “Shawshank Redemption.”
