Justin Simien directs the adaptation starring Rosario Dawson, LaKeith Stanfield, Jamie Lee Curtis, Jared Leto, Winona Ryder, Owen Wilson, Danny DeVito, Dan Levy and Tiffany Haddish.

The film, judging by the trailer, utilizes the Disneyland attraction exterior over Disney World’s attraction façade. However, the film will clearly incorporate some of the attraction’s iconic scenes such as the stretching portraits, the organ-playing ghost and the Black Widow Bride.
