Kristen Stewart‘s Snow White and the Huntsman will not interfere with promotion for "Breaking Dawn"

In a brilliant move by Universal, EW reports they have moved up the release date of the film by six months! Not only does this beat rival Relativity’s Snow White (with Julia Roberts) release date by four weeks, but now production can get rolling earlier because Stewart’s availability for filming was just slightly in jeopardy.

As you Twi-Hards know, Breaking Dawn Part 1 comes out in November 18, 2011 and Kristen and Robert Pattinson will have the most promotional duties leading up to it.

Now, with Snow White‘s earlier release date, studio sources tell Celebuzz they are moving up filming at least a month to early August rather than September.

Insiders familiar with Kristen’s schedule tell us part of changing the release date was to ensure she could do the film so it wouldn’t interfere with Breaking Dawn press duties. Oh, we are also told Summit has been very accommodating as well to work around it K.Stew’s filming schedule.

Chris Hemsworth is a go for the huntsman role and he joins Charlize Theron and Sam Claflin. Sounds amazing! Snow White and the Huntsman is set for a June 1, 2012 release.
