Will Eddie Murphy return to lead the cast, two decades later? Or is Terence Stamp’s evil butler back?
‘The Haunted Mansion’ will reopen its doors, 20 years after its premiere, and we couldn’t be more eager for it to do so.
In this classic Disney “horror” we saw Eddie Murphyin the shoes of a greedy real estate agent, and his family entering the terrifying Gracey Mansion, where they would be received by a group of convicts who would make them spend a “scary” night. Considered one of the best haunted house movies, the film will release its sequel in 2023, this time directed by Justin Simien.
But, What can we expect from the new film, inspired by one of the most famous attractions in the Disney amusement parks? Will Eddie Murphy return to lead the cast, two decades later? At the end of the first film we saw the members of the Mansion free themselves from the curse that consumed them… Is Terence Stamp’s evil butler back?
We have all the answers! Or, at least, all that we can have so far. Information about the sequel is trickling in slowly, and we’ll be updating this article as we learn more. So, Do not let anything escape you and check the news!
Then this is everything we know about ‘The Haunted Mansion’ (2023):
‘The Haunted Mansion’: Release date
The sequel to ‘The Haunted Mansion’ is scheduled to premiere in Spain on July 28 of this year. A chilling adventure is always a tasteful dish for a hot summer afternoon…
Take refuge in the coolness of the cinema’s air conditioning, jump around a couple of times and let out the occasional laugh!
‘The Haunted Mansion’: Synopsis
According to what has already been revealed about the new ‘Haunted Mansion’, this time the story will not follow the Evers family on a hair-raising adventure… a visit to your next lake vacation).
In this case, the film will focus on a single mother, named Gabbie, who will hire a tour guide, a medium, a priest and a historian (no, it’s not a joke, it’s the real combination of characters), with the aim of exorcising a mansion that he has just bought and which has turned out to be completely infested with ghosts.
Did the Evers sell it to him, and after all, do we get to see Eddie Murphy and Marsha Thomason? (*cross our fingers*)
‘The Haunted Mansion’: Cast
A large part of the cast has already been confirmed. First of all, andLeading this journey we have Rosario Dawson, who will give life to Gabbiethe new owner of this particular mansion and (as you can imagine) the main victim of all the mess that the spirits will cause.
In addition, the participation of other great faces of fiction has been ensured, such as: Owen Wilson, Winona Ryder, Danny DeVito or Jamie Lee Curtis (After having starred in the Michael Myers franchise, the actress seems to still be hooked on terror, although this time in a version much more Light).
They will also be part of this summer Halloween adventure: Tiffany Haddish, Lakeith Stanfield, Wendy Conrad, Richard Nash, Kat Montes, Stefanie Kidd, Keiko Bell, and Robert Tinsley.
The cast is not scarce, so we can imagine that this new mansion still has more ghosts than the previous one…Let’s hope they are just as entertaining as their predecessors!
