Owen Wilson Joins Disney's New HAUNTED MANSION Movie
Owen Wilson has joined LaKeith Stanfield and Tiffany Haddish in Disney's new Haunted Mansion film project. Audiences sure do love Owen Wilson, and it’s pretty cool to see that he’s signed on to this movie!
When I heard the news, my mind immediately went to the first movie that I remember seeing Wilson in, the 1999 haunted house horror movie The Haunting. And really, all I want is to see him play that character again in Haunted Mansion!
Justin Simien (Dear White People and Bad Hair) is directing the film. This is his first big-budget studio movie and he will helm from a script written by Katie Dippold.
We still don’t have any details to share, but what has been revealed is that it will follow “a family that moves into the titular mansion. However, it is the characters around that nucleus that will have a big portion of the moonlight shining on them.”
The project begins shooting in Atlanta in October, and I hope that it will end up being a great Haunted Mansion movie that fans of the iconic Disney attraction will love. Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich, who produced Disney’s remake of Aladdin, are producing the film.
