Jeremy Renner back on top at box office with ‘Hansel & Gretel’

Jeremy Renner lands at the top of this weekend’s box office with his new film “Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters.” The “Bourne Legacy” star won big during the summer with the “Bourne” film and the blockbuster “The Avengers.”

“Hansel & Gretel” topped the weekend box office with $19 million in ticket sales, according to Box Office Mojo.

“Mama,” produced by Guillermo del Toro and “Silver Linings Playbook” rounded out the top three spots.

The latest Jason Statham sendup disapppointed at #5, earning just $7 million, but the big flop would be the star-filled “Movie 43” earning just $5 million in its first weekend.

While there may not have been high hopes for “Parker,” the $7M  is lower than the debuts of “Safe” ($7.8 million) and “Killer Elite”($9.3 million), two of  Statham’s most recent disappointments.

“Movie 43” a comedy directed by a slew of talent including Peter Farrelly, Elizabeth Banks and Brett Ratner, stars a long list of Tinseltown’s best, including Kristen Bell, Halle Berry, Uma Thurman, Kate Winslet and Hugh Jackman.
