Plot
Snow White (Kristen Stewart) is an incredibly beautiful young woman, with raven hair, fair skin, and ruby red lips. Her beauty is ultimately its own curse. She loves Prince Charmant (Sam Claflin), a boy of the same age as her and from whom she was separated as a teen. Snow White has been forced to live under the hard rules of Ravenna (Charlize Theron), where her only friends were the animals that would come to see her. Snow White's life is turned upside down when Ravenna discovers that Snow White is about to become the fairest. She is driven from the castle and Eric (Chris Hemsworth), the huntsman, is sent to kill her. He is haunted by the death of his wife, Sara, with whom he was deeply in love and cannot silence the pain caused by her loss. He drinks heavily and spends his days hunting for the White Wolf that killed her. He is purely mercenary, taking the money Ravenna offers to bring the most beautiful maidens in the land to the castle. However, when Eric discovers that the White Wolf works for Ravenna, he escapes with Snow White to the Dark Forest and begins preparing to get his revenge.
