Speaking with Daily Mail, Gemma Arterton talks about one of her next action flicks, Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters - a twist on the classic fairy tale which depicts the brother and sister slaughtering witches (Hansel is played by The Avengers' Jeremy Renner). Originally slated for a March release, the film was recently pushed back to January of 2013. Arterton says that her take on Gretel is 'quite wild', and describes how brutal some of her fighting techniques are. For her comments on the upcoming vampire film Byzantium, click the link below.

‘Gretel’s quite wild. She’s super cool, and violent,’ Gemma added, describing the action as Tarantino-esque. ‘She has a crossbow, she headbutts people, folks get decapitated, noses get bitten off. It’s so ridiculous that it’s funny, but I wouldn’t mess with her.'


Originally set to hit theaters March of this year, Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters is now slated for release on January 11th, 2013.
