David Koepp on SWATH 2: ?I Couldn?t? See Sequel Being Made Without Kristen Stewart

David Koepp couldn't envision a Snow White and the Huntsman�sequel without Kristen Stewart ? which is one reason he says he's no longer involved in the project.

Koepp ? who scripted�Jurassic Park, the original 2002�Spider-Man�movie and co-wrote and directed this weekend's new bike-messenger thriller Premium Rush ? tells Movieline that he departed the project because he had worked on a script idea "that I really liked" involving Stewart's character. "And you know, their situation, I hear, changed a little, so they weren't interested in pursuing that idea anymore."

Koepp says that was a sign for him to move on. �"I felt like there was a good path with her, but then, you know, they wanted to explore a different thing that I had no ideas for," he says. �"If you don't have any ideas, you should probably put your pen in your backpack and go home."�As a result, he says, "we agreed to part ways and stay friends."

Stewart's involvement in a Snow White sequel has been hotly debated since reports broke in late July that she cheated on her on- and 0ff-screen Twilight love interest Robert Pattinson with �SWATH director Rupert Sanders and apologized for it.

On Aug. 15, �Deadline�reported that,�internally, Universal is discussing whether to focus the next movie on the Huntsman character played by Chris Hemsworth, who is fast proving himself to be leading-man material. �Universal also bought a crime drama called 90 Church: The True Story of the Narcotics Squad from Hell for Sanders.)
