Jack Black Will Be Back in ‘Goosebumps: Horrorland’
The sequel will arrive on September 21st, 2018.
Rob Letterman is on board to direct the follow-up to 2015’s hit family horror film, which is tentatively titled Goosebumps: Horrorland. We have been assuming that Jack Black would be reprising the role of R.L. Stine in the 2018 movie, but it wasn’t until today that we actually got some concrete confirmation on that.
Over on Twitter, Stine himself revealed that both Black and Slappy will be back!
Yes, there is a script for the Goosebumps movie sequel, and I am told that my evil twin, Jack Black, has signed on. More news to come!

The Horrorland books are set in a vast theme park which R.L. Stine describes as “the scariest place on Earth.”
Darren Lemke wrote the script. Deborah Forte and Neal H. Moritz return as producers.

Matilda Firth Joins the Cast of Director Leigh Whannell’s ‘Wolf Man’ Movie
Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
