Well that didn’t take long.

A sequel to the epic re-telling of the classic Grimms’ fairy tale has already been greenlighted just a week after the movie, which stars Charlize Theron and Kristen Stewart, opened at the multiplex.

Brit filmsite HeyUGuys has the skinny:

“It was inevitable really that even a movie which didn’t do amazingly well with the critics (although our Ben gave it 4*) was going to get a sequel when it has the powerhouses that are Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron and Chris Hemsworth (to name but a few) in it! Deadline are reporting that Universal have confirmed a sequel to Snow White and the Huntsman and that it’ll be done ‘on a fast track’.

The question now is will Rupert Sanders who directed the first movie come back or will we see another person take on the reigns as director? Either way, David Koepp is already writing the script for the movie.”
