Universal Pictures have decided to push back the released date on their reboot of The Mummy by two months in order to slot in Frank Darabont's The Huntsman, which is a spinoff to Rupert Sanders' Snow White and the Huntsman. So, that means The Mummy reboot will open in theaters June 24, 2016 and The Huntsman will open April 22, 2016.

The Huntsman will focus on Chris Hemsworth's role from the first film. The Hollywood Reporter have been told that Kristen Stewart  ("Twilight") will not appear in it, but surprisingly Charlize Theron ("Mad Max: Fury Road"), who played the evil witch, will return.

Good. Charlize was the best part of a "meh" movie.
Don't really know why this is getting a sequel. It was a decent, visually pleasing movie but I wouldn't say the Huntsan "stood out" and made you go "this guy needs his own movie"

O.o While i agree with Cherrybomb, i don't really understand on why you really need her in a sequel. This is obvious not an adaption of the classic story, just loosily based, so why not have some other vilan for the sequel that would make more sense and make it feel less... "cheap and redone"

@Insomnia

Ive heard it may be a prequel perhaps? If so, them I'm sure in the first movie they referenced Ravena and her brother being responsible for the death of the Huntsman's wife.

If it's a sequel then I'm sure we'll have flashbacks of the death of his wife, and I can see it being just a small role for Charlize.

Should have got a new villian. Charlize was great but I hate it when dead villains come back to life.

I never saw the original but I [frick]ing loved how it basically implied Stewart was suppose to be more beautiful than Theron.

Kristen is pretty when she makes an effort but she has nothing on Charlize.
She is literally the most gorgeous woman in the world.

@Klone

Oh it was absolutely hilarious how they actually expected the audience to believe anyone would find Kristen Stewart more beautiful then Charlize Theron with her mouth breathing stare.

Now on this it really doesn't make any sense because Theron's character died at the end of the movie. So is it suppose to be a prequel or what that doesn't make any sense. Though I will agree Theron was far and away the best part of an overall meh movie. Chris Hemsworth was pretty good just not as good as Theron and of course Krsiten Stewart was just absolutely terrible.

The fact that Frank Darabont will be directing The Huntsman has me pretty much sold on the whole thing.

@CherryBomb Kristen looks like she just wandered in to Chris and Charlize photo shoot in that picture. Hell Chris looks hotter than her . . . . . And am I the only one who thinks Kristen Stewart is slowly working on her new career as "The girl who was in those Twilight movies"?

She was the only good thing about that movie.

Off topic but Charlize Theron would be a great Black Canary. I would love to see her and Josh Holloway playing off of each other. I think those two would be great together in a Green Arrow movie.

I will keep repeating it and say it millions of times, what the h*ll were they thinking of making a fairy tale that Stewart is more beautiful than Charlize. It cranks me up every time.

I like Charlize Theron, beautiful and talented actress. I think they should go for Enchantress, maybe Amber Heard for Enchantress.

I don't think Amber Heard would fit for The Enchantress

They did the same thing with Maleficent where the girl they got to play Aurora is in fact pretty ugly she is not very cute at all.



Compared to Angelina Jolie I mean come on it isn't even close.
