The Huntsman is a fictional character in Snow White.
When the Evil Queen had learned from her Magic Mirror that Snow White will be the fairest of them all, she orders an unnamed Huntsman to take Snow White into the deepest woods to be killed. As proof that Snow White is dead, the Queen demands that he return with her lungs and liver. The Huntsman takes Snow White into the forest. But after raising his knife, he fails to kill her as she sobs heavily and begs him not to. The huntsman leaves her behind alive convinced that the girl would be eaten by some wild animal. He instead brings the Queen the lungs and liver of a young wild boar, which is prepared by the cook and eaten by the Queen.
The Huntsman appears in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs voiced by Stuart Buchanan. In this film, the Huntsman's name is Humbert. The Evil Queen is so jealous of Snow White's beauty that she orders Humbert to take Snow White into the forest and kill her. She further demands that the Huntsman return with Snow White's heart in a jewelled box as proof of the deed. But Humbert cannot bring himself to kill Snow White. After revealing the Queen wants her dead, he tearfully begs for her forgiveness. Humbert urges her to flee into the woods and never come back to the castle. When the Evil Queen shows the Magic Mirror the heart in the jewelled box as the proof she holds of Snow White's death, the Magic Mirror reveals that the heart in the box is a pig's heart, causing the Queen to take matters into her own hands. Humbert does not appear again afterwards in the film.
In the musical adaptation, the Huntsman is seen with the Prince when they tell the King of the Evil Queen's plot to dispose of Snow White.
The Huntsman appears in the "Snow White" episode of Grimm's Fairy Tale Classics voiced by Mike Reynolds in the English dub. He is sent by the Evil Queen to eliminate Snow White. This plan fails when Snow White's friend Klaus buys Snow White enough time to get away. When the Huntsman goes after Snow White, he is attacked by a wild boar and knocked off the cliff into the forest below.
