We chat with HauntedMansion star Owen Wilson about 1999's TheHaunting, not being typecast, and his role as Father Kent in Disney’s upcoming theme park ride adaptation:
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Disney is revisiting one of its most popular rides in Haunted Mansion, the new film directed by Justin Simien and written by Katie Dippold . The film comes 20 years after the release of The Haunted Mansion, Disney’s first attempt at adapting its ride into a feature film, which starred the fantastic Eddie Murphy but unfortunately bombed at the box office.
Owen Wilson: Well, Rosario and her son [are] facing this haunted mansion, and they need to put together a team that's going to battle it and help them to overcome it. I'm sort of the first piece of the puzzle. Father Kent is a little bit of a salesman, he's there in New Orleans, [and] he sees a need that people have to deal with spirits. That's a city where people are facing those kinds of issues, and so that's what he does.
Looking back a little bit to 2002--you did a movie called I Spy Eddie Murphy a year before he did The Haunted Mansion. Did you, either then or more recently, talk about that film at all, and did that play any part in your decision to join this one? Owen Wilson: Yeah... The last time I was really in this kind of genre my character didn't make it through, and that’s always a little bit unnerving because there's something in us that wants to survive. I got a little bit further along in the story with this one. Did I make it to the end? You know, that's… I can't really say too much about that.
And do you feel like your relationship with comedy and comedy filmmaking has changed over the years in any way? In terms, maybe, of what kind of scripts you're looking for these days, or [what makes something] exciting to you?
