After the recently released "Van Helsing"-ish trailer for the troubled "Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters" comes word that Vin Diesel is being courted for an incredibly similar-sounding Lionsgate-Summit movie called "The Last Witch Hunter," according to The Wrap. The movie, originally set to be directed by "Wanted"/"Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" director Timur Bekmambetov, will now be helmed by Breck Eisner, who last directed the somewhat underappreciated "Crazies" remake. Must be the season of the witch, huh?
