Queen Ravenna
Ravenna, also known as "The Evil Queen" or simply "The Queen", is the primary antagonist of the American fantasy adventure films Snow White and the Huntsman and The Huntsman: Winter's War.
Ravenna is the cruel and tyrannical ruler of the kingdom of Tabor as well as a dangerously powerful sorceress. She is the older sister of Finn and Freya, the widow of King Magnus, and the stepmother of Princess Snow White. Because of her extreme beauty, Ravenna was regarded as being the "Fairest of Them All". However, when she learned that, since coming of age, Snow White had now surpassed her as the "fairest", Ravenna becomes determined to kill her stepdaughter and consume her heart, which would not only grant her eternal youth and evergreen beauty, but would also maintain her powers forever. After being defeated by Snow White and resurrected by Freya, Ravenna plots revenge against those who brought about her demise, with her sister's help, only to be defeated once more by Eric the Huntsman, with Freya's assistance.
She is portrayed by Charlize Theron, with Izzy Meikle-Small portraying her as a child.
Ravenna was born to an unknown sorceress and lived with her mother and her siblings, Finn and Freya, in a small village. It is unclear exactly when Ravenna was born; she is implied to be far older than she looks due to her magical powers and her comment about having "lived many lives" suggests she could be over a hundred years old. Even as a child, Ravenna was noted to be of extraordinary physical beauty, to the extent where her mother viewed her as "the fairest of them all".
When she was still quite young, Ravenna's village was attacked by the King of that land. Believing that her oldest daughter's beauty was the only thing that could save her - and by possible extension, her younger siblings as well - from this assault, the sorceress placed a spell on Ravenna that would make her young and beautiful forever. However, she also warned Ravenna that the spell could be undone by one of "fairest blood". Immediately after, Ravenna, Finn and, presumably, Freya, were captured by the King's men and taken away. Though it was neither confirmed nor specifically stated, it was heavily implied that their mother was later killed by this assault, as Ravenna comments to Snow White that her mother died when she was younger.
It was never revealed as to what truly happened to Ravenna and her siblings after they were forcefully separated from their mother, but it was possible that the King who attacked their village had later sexually assaulted Ravenna, given how she once mentioned that she was "ruined by a King". It was also implied that the three siblings had a difficult upbringing, living in extreme poverty and eating scraps.
