One among Disney’s darkest shows might quickly get a live-action revival. James Wan, the man who helped reinvent horror with Noticed and Insidious (and made the mega-blockbusters Livid 7 and Aquaman) is teaming up with frequent collaborator Gary Dauberman to show the 1990s Disney cartoon Gargoyles right into a live-action collection for Disney+.
In accordance with the Hollywood Reporter, which broke the story, Dauberman will act as showrunner, author, and govt producer with Wan, as a part of his Atomic Monster firm, additionally govt producing. The pair have beforehand labored collectively on the Annabelle movies, a part of The Conjuring Universe which Wan helped create and directed a number of films in. Dauberman wrote Annabelle, Annabelle: Creation, and Annabelle Comes Houses, the final of which he additionally directed.
And whereas Gargoyles clearly gained’t attain that degree of creepy (it’s being made for Disney+ in spite of everything), the potential is there. The present ran from 1994 to 1997 and adopted a gaggle of gargoyle statues, relocated from Scotland, who awakened at night time to guard New York.
There’s no phrase on when Dauberman and Wan will get to work on the present, however the timing is actually acceptable. With Halloween simply across the nook, Disney+ simply launched a present primarily based on the Goosebumps collection of books that many assume hits a pleasant steadiness between spooky, scary, and “protected for Disney.” That just about actually looks like the precise steadiness, if not tone, a Gargoyles present must carry to make it on the streamer.
