According to Mike Flemming over at Deadline, Famke Janssen, best known to fanboys as Jean Grey in X-Men, will play the leader of the witches in the Tommy Wirkola-directed Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters at Paramount Pictures. She joins Jeremy Renner (The Hurt Locker) and Gemma Arterton (Clash of the Titans) as the title characters who, 15 years after their narrow fairy tale escape from the gingerbread house, become specialized bounty-hunters looking to take down the witches that almost killed them. Gary Sanchez is producing the witch project.
