Kristen Stewart 'terrified' by 'Snow White and the Huntsman' stunts


Kristen Stewart has confessed that she was terrified by some of her stunts in Snow White and the Huntsman (2012).

Speaking at WonderCon, the actress revealed that she had to overcome her fear of horse-riding for the movie.

"I got to jump off cliffs and ride horses, and that terrifies me," she said.

"I was really, really not happy about having to do all that horseback riding. I don't like that - I hate that."

"I fell off a horse once and hurt myself really badly. I broke and dislocated my elbow when I was, like, 9."

Explaining how she dealt with her anxieties, she said: "I just had to not think about it. I wanted so badly to do this that it was just like, 'Alright, well, if I perish by horse, that's all good'."

Stewart also spoke about her admiration for the character she plays in the film, commenting: "My favourite thing about Snow White is that she's endowed with so much and there's so much inside her. It's like she's brimming. She doesn't always necessarily know why."

"I can - in so many different parts of my life - relate to that and love that about her. So it was cool to have that all behind kicking the s**t out of someone."

Snow White and the Huntsman, also starring Chris Hemsworth and Charlize Theron, opens on June 1 in US and UK cinemas.
