The 'Walking Dead' executive producer Frank Darabont is in talks to replace Rupert Sanders in 'The Huntsman', a spinoff of Kristen Stewart-starrer 'Snow White and the Huntsman'.
Chris Hemsworth and Charlize Theron will reprise their roles in Universal's spin-off but Stewart is not coming back for a sequel, said the Hollywood Reporter.
The actress was caught in a massive media storm after it was revealed that she had an affair with the film's married director, Sanders.

Stewart was dating her 'Twilight' co-star Robert Pattinson when photographs of her with Sanders were published, forcing her to issue a public apology. The affair ended her relationship with Pattinson while Sanders was divorced by his wife Liberty Ross.
Darabont, who directed 'The Shawshank Redemption' and 'The Green Mile', has not helmed a feature film since 2007's 'The Mist'.
