Haunted Mansion Movie, Round 2!

Now that Disney owns Marvel they were bound to have a big presence at the San Diego Comic Con which is going on right now. But the first big news out of the comic industry’s biggest convention has nothing to do with Iron Man or Wolverine. Instead, its a bit of news that was first seeded at the D20 Expo when it was announced that Guillermo del Toro was set to do some work for the Mouse.

Well, the project is a new Haunted Mansion movie. Although there has been no casting yet, you can pretty much guarantee it will not be an Eddie Murphy vechile. It will be a live action movie but it will NOT be a comedy. The only other tidbit released is that the hatbox ghost from the ride will play a “pivotal” role. Cool!

Disney hopes this will be another Pirates franchise. Only time will tell…
