Disney just announced a HUGE surprise announcement at Comic-Con:Guillermo del Torois directing a reboot ofThe Haunted Mansion. After theTron Legacypanel, which just plain kicked ass, moderator Patton Oswalt asked audiences what Disney franchise they'd want to see rebooted. Then they rolled a brief teaser logo forThe Haunted Mansionand introduced del Toro to the stage. They are making it live-action, and in 3D, and will be making the mansion the scariest place on earth."If you take the children, they will scream,"del Toro said. It's one his favorite experiences and he's excited to bring it to the big screen again.
Del Toro, who was there to give his brief take on what he'll be doing withThe Haunted Mansion, said that they're staying true to the art and aesthetic of the original ride that the Disney Imagineers created. They are not making a comedy and Eddie Murphy definitely won't be back. He also says that they're going to make itscaryandfun, at the same time."But the scarywillbe scary,"del Toro promised. And for hardcore fans of the ride, the mythology is going to be created around the"Hat Box Ghost."who is returning. The originalHaunted Mansionrideopened at Disneyland in 1969 and has been updated and expanded over the years.
This looks like it is the project that, sadly, del Toro had to leaveThe Hobbitto take on. However, I trust del Toro and if he says he's going to deliver a scary, modernHaunted Mansionmovie that could become a new classic for generations to enjoy, than I think he can certainly do that. My concern isNOTthat he leftHobbitfor this, I care more about knowing who his replacement is.What do you think - good news or bad?
