Hansel And Gretel Delayed Until 2013

While a majority of spring and summer films have had their trailers rolling out recently one of them has been absent. That project is the horror action comedy Hansel And Gretel: Witch Hunters that stars Jeremy Renner and Gemma Arterton. Multiple sources have confirmed that Paramount has pushed back the release date from March 2nd 2012 to January 11th 2013.

No reasons have been given for the move but a busy spring/summer release schedule could be the problem. 2012 is expected to be the year of the event film while 2013 isn't overwhelmed with movies yet. Paramount might be conflicted with the film's rating as January is a month known for R-rated genre films. Reshoots and beefing up special effects could also be a factor for the delay. We should expect a presence this summer at Comic-Con.
