Danny DeVito Joins Disney's HAUNTED MANSION Movie
Danny DeVito is the latest actor to join the cast of Disney’s new live-action Haunted Mansion movie. The movie is being helmed by Justin Simien (Dear White People and Bad Hair) and it also stars LaKeith Stanfield, Tiffany Haddish, Owen Wilson and Rosario Dawson.
Production on the film recently started in New Orleans and Atlanta. All we know about the story so far is that it will follow “a mother and her son who come across a mansion that is more than it seems while being orbited by various characters key to undressing the spooky mystery.”
DeVito will play a smug professor in the story. DeVito is always great in the roles that he plays, so it’ll be fun to see him in this movie.
The Haunted Mansion is one of my favorite rides at Disneyland and I’m really hoping that this new film adaptation captures the spirits of the ride and everything that make it so enjoyable.
