“Goosebumps 2′ Builds Their Comedy Ensamble
Sony Pictures is building their Goosebumps 2 cast, adding Wendi McLendon-Covey (“Reno 911”, “The Goldbergs”, Bridesmaids), Ken Jeong (“Community”, Hangover), and Chris Parnell (Anchorman, Hotrod) to the ensemble, reports Variety. They join the previously announced cast of Madison Iseman (Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle), Ben O’Brien (Manchester by the Sea), Caleel Harris (“Castle Rock”), and Jeremy Ray Taylor (IT), who are set to star.
Plot details are currently unknown, but it’s been rumored to be shooting under the title Slappy’s Revenge and follow three who friends must stop Slappy the dummy from starting the Halloween apocalypse. The pic is set to release on Oct. 12, 2018, which seems highly unlikely at this point.
Ari Sandel is developing the project, which is one of multiple iterations based on the dozens of books in the series that the studio is developing. Neal H. Moritz of Original Film and Deborah Forte of Silvertongue Films are producing.
R.L. Stine’s book series has sold over 350 million copies worldwide and inspired the studio to make a movie following the books’ author, played by Jack Black, and what happens after his stories begin to become a reality in a small town. 2015’s Goosebumps went on to gross $150 million worldwide.

Matt Donato raved in his 4-star review, “Mind Body Spirit is a knockout horror session for the livestream era, which has me desperately waiting to see what its creators and stars do next.”
In Mind Body Spirit, “Anya, an aspiring yoga influencer, embarks on a ritual practice left behind by her estranged grandmother. She documents the practice on her YouTube channel for the world to watch, allowing her audience intimate access to her journey.
“But what starts as a spiritual self-help guide evolves into something much more sinister. As Anya becomes obsessed with the mysterious power of the practice, she unwittingly unleashes an otherworldly entity that begins to take control of her life – and her videos. Now Anya must race to unlock the truth, before her descent into madness threatens to consume her mind, body and spirit. By the time she reveals the true nature of the ritual, will it be too late?”
