'Snow White and the Huntsman' Blu-ray and DVD details

On September 11th Universal Studios Home Entertainment will be releasing the extended edition (which looks to run 4 minutes longer) of Snow White and the Huntsman on Blu-ray combo pack, which will include the Blu-ray, DVD, Digital and UltraViolet copies of the film. The film is directed by Rupert Sanders and stars Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron and Chris Helmsworth, and this release has a shedload of extras to work through. More details below.


In this spectacular action-adventure, Kristen Stewart (Twilight) is Snow White, the only woman in the land fairer than the evil queen Ravenna (Oscar® winner Charlize Theron). Ravenna wants nothing more than to destroy her young rival, but she doesn’t know that Show White has been training in the art of war with a huntsman (Chris Hemsworth) the queen dispatched to kill her. Together with a handsome prince (Sam Claflin) enchanted by Snow White’s beauty and power, they assemble an armed force to recapture the kingdom. This breathtaking new vision of the legendary tale from Joe Roth, the producer of Alice in Wonderland and acclaimed commercial director and state-of-the-art visualist Rupert Sanders is, in the words of Shawn Edwards, Fox-TV, “A film that soars with creativity, stylistic genius and amazing battle scenes.”
