Disney hires Guillermo del Toro to make new, Eddie Murphy-less Haunted Mansion movie
In surprising news from Comic-Con, Guillermo del Toro has announced that he is developing a film for Disney based on its stalwart theme-park attraction The Haunted Mansion. It’s surprising news because Disney already developed a film based on The Haunted Mansion with Eddie Murphy, which wasn’t really all that long ago. But the press release gracefully sidesteps that ill-received effort by pretending like it never happened, just like Terence Stamp has been doing for the last seven years.
