Way back in April, we brought you some unofficial, behind the scenes set photos of Jeremy Renner (The Hurt Locker, The Avengers) and Gemma Arterton (Wrath of the Titans) in their witch hunting wardrobe as Hansel and Gretel on the set of director Tommy Wirkola‘s (Dead Snow) Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters.

Now, EW has premiered our first official look at the two actors in the film featuring the infamous siblings who are now grown adults who have become witch hunters. Check it out below, along with some details about the film from Gemma Arterton.

Actress Gemma Arterton had this to say about the film:

“You see a series of flashbacks with their experience of killing that first witch, which is brilliant. I remember being on set for the final few days of that. The candy house, and the witches are really repulsive and quite frightening. The makeup is out of this world. It’s this bone-chilling scene. Very dark. The girl who plays my character is brilliant, with the horrified expression she has.”

“it’s also very, very dark, and bloodthirsty and there’s a lot of cursing. It’s kind of got a [Quentin] Tarantino feel, really.”

Synopsis:

In the vein of BLADE, VAN HELSING and KILL BILL, HANSEL AND GRETEL: WITCH HUNTERS is an edgy action-packed fantasy adventure starring two-time Academy Award Nominee Jeremy Renner and Gemma Arterton.

Everybody knows the story of the young brother and sister who turned the tables on the witch in the candy house, but what you don’t know is what happened afterwards. HANSEL AND GRETEL: WITCH HUNTERS is the story of the grown up Hansel and Gretel, and they have some unresolved issues from childhood. The two are now professional bounty hunters, experts at tracking down and killing witches. Showing no mercy, these two now leave a trail of dead witches instead of bread crumbs in their wake.

Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters is slated to hit theaters on March 3rd, 2012.
