'The Huntsman' will star Charlize Theron as a powerful female villain together with Emily Blunt. Theron is also actively campaigning against the unfair gender pay gap happening in Hollywood. Chris Hemsworth's body-double and stuntman shared some diet tricks that helped him keep up with the actor's role demands.

According to Moviepilot, Charlize Theron demanded an equal paycheck for her work on the sequel of 2012's 'Snow White and the Huntsman' after learning of her co-star Chris Hemsworth's negotiated deal. Hemsworth reportedly received a whopping ten million dollars more than his female cast mates regardless of them doing the same amount of work for the project.

Theron admitted that to be treated fairly, one must speak up and justify negotiations. She said, "I have to give them credit because once I asked, they said yes. They did not fight it... And maybe that's the message: That we just need to put our foot down." She reportedly received her promised pay raise last June.

The South African actress isn't the only Hollywood A-lister trying to address the unequal gender pay gap. According to the Daily Mail, a leaked Sony e-mail containing the salaries of top-tier celebrities - with male actors getting paid substantially higher than their female counterparts - raised the issue once more and angered many actresses including Jennifer Lawrence. Theron commented upon seeing the leak, "They're just as good as any of the guys on there... Yeah, that pissed me off!"

Theron is reprising her role as the villainous Queen Ravenna. Emily Blunt will be joining her as another antagonist - Freya, an ice queen. The two have been known to play leading ladies in thrillers as well as action-adventure films.

Chris Hemsworth is also returning to portray the titular Eric the Huntsman. The 32-year old Hollywood heartthrob is known for his roles on blockbuster films such as 'Thor', 'Avengers', 'Rush', 'In The Heart of the Sea', and 'The Cabin in the Woods'. He has always been a favorite in several awards outlets such as MTV Movie Awards, Teen Choice Awards and People's Choice Awards.

His primary stuntman and body double Bobby Holland Hanton revealed his diet for achieving Hemsworth's bulked-up physique. According to GQ Magazine, Hanton admitted that his diet depended entirely on the actor's various roles and because Hemsworth is very big yet very lean, Hanton had to do a lot of regular eating to keep up.

He said, "After a while it starts to get quite difficult but you keep telling yourself, 'It's for the job, it's for the job, it's for the job.'"

'The Hunstman' is an upcoming dark fantasy action-adventure film directed by Cedric Nicolas-Troyan. It is scheduled to be released on April 22, 2016. The film is intended as a prequel as well as a spin-off to Rupert Sanders' 2012 film 'Snow White and the Huntsman' starring Kristen Stewart.
