Director Justin Simien reveals his favorite ghost in the Haunted Mansion reboot, the Mariner Ghost, citing its artistic nature and how it relates to the protagonist's emotional journey. The Haunted Mansion reboot will feature iconic elements from the Disneyland ride, including the Hatbox Ghost and Lindsay Lamb's bridal ghost, indicating a more serious take on the movie. The marketing for the Haunted Mansion reboot has confirmed the appearance of the Hitchhiking Ghosts and moving busts, hinting at potential sequels and the expansion of the franchise.

The cast of Disney’s “Haunted Mansion” were only at their premiere in spirit. Following the breakout of the SAG-AFTRA strike, the stars of the film skipped out on the Saturday night premiere for the theme park film adaptation
The movie, the second adaptation of Disney’s iconic Haunted Mansion attraction after the 2003 Eddie Murphy film, stars a large ensemble cast that includes Lakeith Stanfield, Tiffany Haddish, Danny DeVito, Rosario Dawson, Jamie Lee Curtis, Winona Ryder, Dan Levy, Hasan Minhaj, Chase W. Dillon, Marilu Henner, and Lindsay Lamb. None of the actors attended the red carpet at Disneyland in Anaheim, according to Variety. Under the terms of the SAG-AFTRA strike, which began on Thursday, guild members are not able to take part in press junkets or promotional duties for studio films they are in while the guild is in a work stoppage.

The show must go on apparently for Disney’s Haunted Mansion, as the premiere at Disneyland continued to take place on Saturday, despite SAG-AFTRA voting to strike on Thursday morning.
As Variety reported earlier in the week, the film’s debut was going to happen regardless of how the strike vote landed. On Saturday, instead of the usual interviews with actors and actresses as they walked the red carpet, the press was met with Disneyland characters strutting their stuff as “guests,” as Variety shared. There were appearances by Cruella de Vil,...

Disney didn’t let the SAG-AFTRA strike get in the way of its “Haunted Mansion” world premiere.
None of the stars of the movie were expected to be in attendance, including Lakeith Stanfield, Tiffany Haddish, Danny DeVito, Rosario Dawson, Chase W. Dillon, Daniel Levy, Jamie Lee Curtis, Hasan Minhaj, Marilu Henner and Lindsay Lamb all observing the SAG-AFTRA strike. The studio still rolled out the red carpet at Disneyland in Anaheim Saturday night.
Director Justin Simien told Variety he was “sad” his cast couldn’t attend, but understands why and supports the actors walkout. Press were initially told that Simien would not be doing interviews.

Disney’s Haunted Mansion is hosting its premiere at Disneyland on July 15, regardless of what transpires concerning the SAG-AFTRA strike. Disney says the red carpet premiere will become a “fan event” if the guild calls for a strike. Lakeith Stanfield, Tiffany Haddish, Danny DeVito, Rosario Dawson, Daniel Levy, Jamie Lee Curtis, Chase W. Dillon, Hasan Minhaj, Marilu Henner, and Lindsay Lamb are among those who star in the film, all of which could strike if the negotiations continue. The film also features Winona Ryder in an undisclosed role and Jared Leto as the famous villain from the Disney attraction, the Hat-Box Ghost.
What remains to be seen is if the film’s director, Justin Simien, producers Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich, executive producers Nick Reynolds and Tom Peitzman, and composer Kris Bowers would walk an actor-less red carpet if Disney decides to roll one out. No matter what happens, Disney...

Disney’s Haunted Mansion premiere at Disneyland this Saturday will turn into a fan event should the SAG-AFTRA strike occur.
Sources tell us that Disney is still mulling whether there will be a red carpet press line on Saturday if a SAG-AFTRA work stoppage occurs; essentially studio executives, Haunted Mansion director Justin Simien, producers Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich, EPs Nick Reynolds and Tom Peitzman and composer Kris Bowers could be available for interviews in such an instance.
The current SAG-AFTRA contract was extended to 11:59Pm, tomorrow, Wednesday. Any actors and actresses nominated for Primetime Emmys can still do press, but after Thursday, they cannot do any press for any projects. That rule by the union has tied the hands of studios and networks heading down to San Diego Comic-Con next week, from July 19-23. Expect to see a lot of screenings and trailers, and hardly any talking heads down there.

Disney’s red carpet premiere for “Haunted Mansion,” held on July 15 at Disneyland, will take place even if there is a SAG-AFTRA strike.
It is the first major world premiere set to take place after the strike deadline.
The stars of the movie, including Lakeith Stanfield, Tiffany Haddish, Danny DeVito, Rosario Dawson, Chase W. Dillon, Daniel Levy, Jamie Lee Curtis, Hasan Minhaj, Marilu Henner and Lindsay Lamb, would no longer be able to take part in the festivities in the case of a strike.
It is not clear if director Justin Simien, producers Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich, executive producers Nick Reynolds and Tom Peitzman and composer Kris Bowers, would participate in a traditional red carpet with photographers and interview press. That is, if Disney still rolls out a carpet.
Strike or no strike, the studio is expected to host about 2,000 guests, including fans in costumes, at the premiere.

A group of friends travel up to a cabin located deep within the forest. Shortly after arriving, they stumble across an abandoned mine and decide to explore the dark and mysterious tunnels. As the group hikes deeper within the mine, they make a shocking discovery that quickly turns their excitement into fear. Hunted by a mysterious force, the group must work together to escape the mine alive.
Mine Games, apart from having a hilarious pun for the title, is a right old mixed bag. Together with the standard horror clichés that we have all come to know and love, the story overall is a hidden gem which left me both surprised and satisfied. ‘Surprisified’ you might say.

For the first time ever, an incredible ballet of bloodshed will commence on screen.
The story is simple on the surface with a sinister subplot that will not be revealed to the naked eye as twelve innocent souls fall prey to the sentimental slaughter. Jared Masters made it up.. Although the story will unfold against a backdrop of Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake as in Black Swan by Darren Aronofsky, the film just might take on more of a tone similar to Dario Argento's Susperia, while delicate dancers perform their last.
Ballerina Massacre Aka Ballet of Blood is in its early stage of pre-production and is scheduled to film this year. Densely poetic and tribal, the film will feature explicit gore, rumored to be a thirty-gallon picture (Slink, also directed by Masters, used five gallons).

When the award winning director Jared Masters read chapter one of the new Teachers’ Day novel, he was simply shocked by the poignancy and beauty of a literature only Stephanie Campbell could bring. The girl has written twice as many novels as Masters has produced pictures. From the recent Gator, to the critically acclaimed Visible Scars, Campbell knows a best seller when she sees one.
The prodigy hails from the Midwest. Her skills have brought her forefront access to the world of paperback pressing, while managing to capture the fragility of the teenage heart. Masters is in love. Finally he’s found a young, untainted mind he can make progress with in the field of motion pictures and novelty literary arts. The opus is underway, and so deep, it penetrates the curiosities of youthful human emotion.

Jared Lee Masters, mastermind behind the upcoming horror slasher ‘Teachers’ Day’, continues to grind forward on the film. The film is about 2/3 done and has a planned wrap date of early May.
Take a look at the full details below.
From the Press Release:
Once every six or seven years; a motion picture is made that leaves you tingling from amazement, tickled by humor, tantalized by sensationalism, tormented by horror, and tranquilized by fear. The film that's adding up this time: Teachers' Day. Viewers will be instantly immersed into a world of hot pink, ring-pop terror, a rekindling of the sugarcoated adolescence you never had, because your parents were going through a messy divorce (and you were a nasty little rebel). Teachers' Day is an American made slasher-comedy, conceived in the swamps of predictable director Jared Lee Masters' sordid mind. A crock-pot of comedic characters.
