Box Office Report:
'Hansel and Gretel' Slays Box Office as Other Star Vehicles Sputter.

"Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters,” an R-rated 3D update of the classic Grimm's fairy tale starring Jeremy Renner and Gemma Arterton, slashed its way to $19 million and the top of the domestic box office on a weekend that saw some stars stumble.

But industry analysts had expected more from the movie considering the premium pricing from the 2,900 3D and Imax locations out of a market-high 3,373 theaters. The 3D locations accounted for 55 percent of the grosses, and Imax brought in 11 percent.

Cold and tough weather across much of the East Coast didn't help “Hansel and Gretel,” or the overall box office, which was down about 15 percent from the comparable weekend last year.

Paramount also opened "Hansel and Gretel" in 19 overseas markets and brought in $25 milliion. A solid overseas performance will be critical for the film to make money, given its $50 million budget.

“We had a strong Saturday,” Paramount's head of distribution Don Harris told TheWrap, “so I think that weather really did hurt us on Friday. The international number was stronger than we expected, so we're about where we wanted to be worldwide.”

The R-rating may have cut into its performance here. Just 43 percent of the "Hansel and Gretel" audience was under 25, while 55 percent was male. That missing young female demographic was the target of the horror thriller “Mama,” which opened No. 1 last week. The Guillermo del Toro-produced horror thriller, starring Jessica Chastain, wound up second this weekend with $12.9 million.
