As part of its #HalfwaytoHalloween online celebration, Disney has announced new details and released the official logo for its new “Haunted Mansion” film.
Directed by Justin Simien (“Bad Hair”), “Haunted Mansion” stars Rosario Dawson (“Zombieland: Double Tap”) as a doctor who, along with her 9-year-old son (Chase Dillon, “The Underground Railroad”), looks to start a new life by moving into a strangely affordable new mansion in New Orleans, only to discover that the place is much more than they bargained for. Desperate for help, they contact a priest (Owen Wilson, “Loki”), who, in turn, enlists the aid of a widowed scientist-turned failed-paranormal expert (LaKeith Stanfield, “Knives Out”), a French Quarter psychic (Tiffany Haddish, “Bad Trip”) and a crotchety historian (Danny DeVito, “Jumanji: The Next Level”).
“Haunted Mansion” was produced by Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich (“Aladdin”). Nick Reynolds (“Easter Sunday”) and Tom Peitzman (“The Lion King”) are the executive producers.
“Haunted Mansion” will be released in theaters on March 10, 2023.
