Kristen Stewart Injured During Battle with Dwarves on 'Snow White' Set

In her upcoming movie, "Snow White and the Huntsman," Kristen Stewart will take a break from making angsty faces at vampires to bring to life a classic Disney cartoon. But it may turn out that the actress should stick to what she does best -- while doing battle with a group of dwarves last October, she suffered an arm injury. KTLA reports that Stewart pulled a ligament during what must have been an epic fight. Production was briefly shut down as she recovered.
Stewart told UK paper The Sun that, "I got hurt doing a fight scene with dwarfs. This ligament pull was really bad. Every day I have bruises all over. It's full-on."
News of Stewart's hurt arm traveled fast after her co-star, Max Manganello, tweeted about it.
