Disney is taking us to the Haunted Mansion with a new film based on the iconic ride. Today, we’ve got some casting news to share with you. Comedian Tiffany Haddish (Night School, Girls Trip, Like A Boss) and Oscar nominee LaKeith Stanfield (Get Out, Knives Out, Sorry To Bother You) are currently in talks to star in the movie, THR reports. “Stanfield would play a widower who once believed in the supernatural but is now a rather lifeless tour guide in New Orleans’ French Quarter,” and “Haddish would play a psychic hired to commune with the dead.” Which we assume is the role of the iconic Madame Leota, the headless psychic in the crystal ball, played by Jennifer Tilly in the 2003 adaptation.

In 1866 Oliver Winchester made his mark in the world by manufacturing the model 1866 repeating rifle that we always see in old western movies and TV shows.

The Winchester Repeating Arms Company eventually was headed by Oliver’s only son William after his death in December of 1880. Calamity soon struck the family again when three months later, William died from Tuberculosis

Marvel will soon have a new comic, based on Disney’s attraction The Haunted Mansion. The first issue, written by Joshua Williamson with artwork by E.M. Gist, is due out in March and will introduce the 999 ghosts that walk the halls of the mansion. One thisng that Marvel and I have talked about a little bit is making sure there’s really a horror aspect,” Williamson said. “There are silly parts of the attraction, but we wanted to make sure there was horror there, which is not something I’ve done a lot with my other books.” Williamson’s other titles include Ghosted, Birthright and Nailbiter from Image Comics, Captain Midnight under Dark Horse Comics and Boom! Studios’ Robocop.
