The Hunters is a 2013 science fiction adventure telefilm starring Robbie Amell and Alexa Vega that was produced by Walden Media. It debuted on the Hallmark Channel on October 25, 2013.

The film is based on the graphic novel Mirror Mirror by Joshua Williamson and directed by Nisha Ganatra with a script written by Matthew Huffman and Jeffrey Alan Schechter.

Carter (Dan Payne) and Jordyn Flynn (Michelle Forbes) aren't the average mother and father. For them, a typical workday can take place anywhere in the world, raiding ornate museums and evading pursuing authorities as Hunters, protectors of powerful fairytale artifacts that are anything but make-believe. While the Flynns take their jobs seriously, they're just as concerned about the welfare of their two sons, 21-year-old Paxton (Robbie Amell) and 16-year-old Tripp (Keenan Tracey), who are unaware of their parents' true line of work.

When Carter and Jordyn disappear after being intercepted by the mysterious Mai (Kira Clavell) during one of their missions, the boys learn the truth about their parents and their lineage from the Flynns’ young assistant Dylan (Alexa Vega). They turn to old family friend Mason (Victor Garber) for help, but they soon discover that the deceitful Mason is after what the Flynns were trying to protect — an enchanted mirror that has the ability to grant any wish. It’s got quite a history too: It’s the same mirror that played a pivotal role in the destiny of Snow White. It becomes evident that it is up to the valiant brothers and Dylan to save the day before very real fairy tale magic falls into Mason’s less-than-worthy hands.

The film was shot in Vancouver, British Columbia with additional shooting done in Thailand.
