The Huntsman: Winter’s War (2016) serves as both a prequel and sequel to Snow White and the Huntsman. The story delves into the tragic history of two sisters, Queen Ravenna (Charlize Theron) and Freya (Emily Blunt).
Freya, once gentle, becomes the Ice Queen after a devastating betrayal. Building a kingdom of her own, she bans love and trains children as warriors, including Eric (Chris Hemsworth) and Sara (Jessica Chastain), who grow up to become her finest huntsmen and fall in love despite her rules.
Years later, after Ravenna’s defeat, Freya seeks her sister’s magical mirror to strengthen her powers. Eric and Sara team up to stop her, facing numerous challenges and dark magic along the way. Their journey reveals hidden secrets, intense battles, and the ultimate clash between love and icy vengeance as they fight to prevent Freya from using the mirror’s power to reign supreme.
