Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters Sequel Officially In the Works
It’s time for Jeremy Renner & Gemma Arterton to pop the champagne so they can drown in their sorrows because Paramount has officially decided to go forward with a sequel to Tommy Wirkola’s Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters. The only way I’ll see this is if they replace Renner & Arterton with Will Ferrell and Tina Fey (or Amy Poehler) and call it Hansel & Gretel: Bitch Hunter.
The film did okay domestically, pulling in a modest $56 million, but earned an impressive $151 million internationally which was apparently enough to warrant a second film. Is it just me, or does it feel like Hansel & Gretel was released years ago? How wonderfully forgettable that film was. Safe House 2 and now this? “It came true!” – Anne Hathaway.
