So what film could Guillermo Del Toro possibly be doing next after dropping off The Hobbit? It seems that Guillermo Del Toro is writing, producing, and directing a 3D reboot of The Haunted Mansion. If you remember, the last time Disney tried to make an adaptation of their Haunted Mansion them park ride, it turned out as a comedy starring Eddie Murphy. Luckily, that is not the aim Guillermo Del Toro is going for. “The scary WILL be scary. If you bring children, they will scream. And I hope to steal as many props as possible,” said Del Toro during his surprise appearance at the end of the TRON Legacy panel.
So I am currently unsure of if this is the surprise project Del Toro was talking about when going into Comic Con, but it worked. We're all surprised! Anything from Guillermo Del Toro is a treat, just as long as it doesn't star Eddie Murphy. "We are not returning Eddie Murphy's calls." Consider me relieved. I can't wait to find out what Guillermo has planned. It's not what I expected, but the best things rarely are. A release date hasn't been announced yet, but if I were to guess, it'll probably come out sometime year.
