Director Justin Simien and Scream Queen Jamie Lee Curtis stopped by D23 today to tease their upcoming live-action Haunted Mansion film, sharing that it will feature cameos from Winona Ryder, Dan Levy, Hasan Minhaj and more.
Simien also debuted a new for-the-room-only trailer which watches as a car pulls up to a mansion in the depths of night.

Simien also early on spoke to his personal connection to Disneyland, as well as its Haunted Mansion attraction. “I
