Get ready for an eerie experience as Disney’s “Haunted Mansion” film is approaching its release, and tickets are now available for purchase. Starring renowned actors like Rosario Dawson, LaKeith Stanfield, Danny DeVito, and Jamie Lee Curtis, this movie is the latest addition to Disney’s lineup of films inspired by their iconic theme park attractions. Following in the footsteps of titles like “The Country Bears,” “Tomorrowland,” “Jungle Cruise,” and the beloved “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise, “Haunted Mansion” promises to captivate audiences.
The story revolves around Gabbie, played by Rosario Dawson, a single mother who acquires a mansion at a discounted price. However, she soon discovers that her new home is plagued by unwelcoming spirits. Determined to rid the house of these supernatural guests, Gabbie enlists the help of a peculiar team of paranormal experts. The team includes a priest portrayed by Owen Wilson, a tour guide played by LaKeith Stanfield, and a medium portrayed by Tiffany Haddish. Together, they must uncover the secrets of the mansion and confront its spectral inhabitants. The movie also features an impressive cast including Jared Leto, Chase W. Dillon, Hasan Minhaj, Dan Levy, and Winona Ryder. Interestingly, Ryder’s role in the film remains a mystery, with fans speculating that she may appear as Constance Hatchaway, also known as The Bride, a beloved character from the original theme park ride.
While the film boasts a star-studded cast, its talented director Justin Simien (known for “Dear White People”) has a special connection to the source material, having previously worked as a cast member at Disneyland. It’s worth noting that Guillermo Del Toro was initially set to direct the film but ultimately took on the role of executive producer. Del Toro also contributed to the screenplay, alongside D. V. DeVincentis and Katie Dippold. Kris Bowers composed the film’s score, while Jeffery Waldron served as the cinematographer. Phillip J. Bartell handled the editing, with production design by Darren Gilford and costume design by Jeffery Kurland.
Disney has previously brought the Haunted Mansion to the silver screen in 2003 with the Eddie Murphy-led adaptation. Although it achieved box office success, earning $182.3 million against a $90 million budget, it received mixed reviews from critics. It remains to be seen how the new film will be received when it haunts its way into theaters on July 28.
