Evil Queen Ravenna (Charlize Theron) betrays her good sister Freya (Emily Blunt), which unleashes a formidable power in her. Freya uses this power to form an army of Huntsmen as her protectors.

A war for domination breaks out between the two sisters. Freya's top Huntsman, Eric (Chris Hemsworth), and fellow warrior Sara (Jessica Chastain) must help Freya triumph over her evil sister. If they don't succeed, Ravenna's wickedness will rule the land for all eternity.
