Kristen Stewart Reveals Reason Why She Wasn't In 'Snow White & The Huntsman' Sequel

Kristen Stewart starred in Snow White and the Huntsman back in 2012, but was left out of the sequel, despite being a starring role.

The 29-year-old actress recently dished on the real reasoning as to why she wasn’t included in the follow up, The Huntsman: Winter’s War.

“We lived in a different time then, you know what I mean? I feel like the sl—shaming that went down was so absurd,” she said about her affair with director Rupert Sanders. “And they should’ve put me in that movie! It would’ve been better. Not to be a d—, but…”

“They didn’t put me in that movie because I went through such a highly publicized scandal, and so they were like scared of touching that,” Kristen continued. “That was a really hard period of my life, I was really young, I didn’t really know how to deal with that. I made some mistakes. And honestly, it’s no one’s business.”

“Basically, what I’m saying is, the work to me genuinely was ignored in a really sort of frivolous, silly, petty way. For a group of adult people who were supposed to be running studios and making films? Honestly, the film industry in Hollywood is so fear-based,” she added. “I think they’re idiots, because if you take a little risk and make something good, people will watch it and like it and pay you.”
