Where was The Huntsman Winter's War filmed? Filming Locations Guide

Winter's War was originally planned to be the second part of Snow White and the Huntsman (2012). But due to the scandal involving lead actress Kristen Stewart having an affair with director Rupert Sanders (who was cheating on his wife), the script was adapted to create this spin-off focused on the Huntsman.

This way, Chris Hemsworth and Charlize Theron reprised their previous roles, and Emily Blunt and Jessica Chastain joined the story.

The Huntsman Winter's War was primarily filmed in England, although in many instances, a lot of CGI (Computer-generated imagery) was used extensively.

In this report, we include the few real filming locations where the movie was shot. You can also find the Snow White and the Huntsman locations following this link.

For many, the real beauty of the saga is the evil Charlize Theron.

One of the most remarkable features of this building is the scissor arches in the transept.

Its design, out of the ordinary, fits perfectly in the fantasy universe pictured in the movie.

The romantic remains of Waverley Abbey, abandoned since the 16th-century, are the perfect location for productions set in a medieval world.

The Huntsman Winter's War was shot at Frensham Little Pond in Surrey, a location that was also used in the previous film.

The shooting locations of the movie have the bonus of being very close to London and the filming headquarters in Pinewood Studios.

Some scenes have been filmed in Puzzlewood, in the Forest of Dean (Gloucestershire).

The Cursed series filming locations also feature this awesome place.

Puzzlewood also appeared in another popular blockbuster, the 2015 movie Star Wars - The Force Awakens.

The filmmakers also shot scenes in several areas at Windsor Great Park, including South Forest, Johnson's Pond, and Deer Park.

But where are the castle and the icy mountains located? On a hard disk, I'm afraid... all those spectacular and whimsical landscapes were entirely created via CGI.
