The tale of the now grown up brother and sister who become full-time witch hunters is helmed by ‘Dead Snow’ director Tommy Wirkola will hit theatres across the US from 25 January and a disappointing 15 March here in the UK. The trailer features its two stars Jeremy Renner (‘The Bourne Legacy’) and sexy Brit actress Gemma Arterton (‘St Trinian’s) in action against a whole host of broomstick flying evil doers. The flick will arrive in both 2D and 3D and looks like it might be quite fun.
