First Look at Christopher Landon’s ‘We Have a Ghost’ Debuts in Netflix’s 2022 Preview Video
Netflix unveiled another busy film slate this morning with a 2022 preview video, below, and it offers up the first look at David Harbour (“Stranger Things”) as a ghost in Christopher Landon‘s family adventure We Have a Ghost.
Anthony Mackie (Synchronic) stars alongside Harbour, with Tig Notaro (Army of the Dead), Jennifer Coolidge (Promising Young Woman), and Jahi Di’Allo Winston (Charm City Kings). The cast also includes Erica Ash, Isabella Russo, Niles Fitch, Faith Ford and Steve Coulter.
In the film, “Finding a ghost named Ernest haunting their new home turns Kevin’s family into overnight social media sensations. But when Kevin and Ernest go rogue to investigate the mystery of Ernest’s past, they become a target of the CIA.”
Written and directed by Landon, We Have a Ghost is an adaptation of a story written by Geoff Manaugh that was published on Vice in October of that year. Manaugh’s story was titled Ernest, billed as a “socially mediated ghost story.”
Watch the first-look below and expect a premiere date soon.
Keith C. Blackmore’s book series Mountain Man is headed to the screen, with Deadline reporting today that Joe Manganiello (“True Blood”) is on board to star in the film adaptation.
The actor will also produce the upcoming zombie movie.
“Mountain Man tells the story of Gus, a lonely post-apocalyptic survivor facing isolation and the ever-present specter of a zombie attack, who struggles with alcohol abuse and suicidal thoughts until he discovers another survivor, a captivating woman who poses another threat altogether.”
John Lee (False Positive) will direct Mountain Man from a script by Matt Deller.
“John is a brilliant creative mind. We’ve been looking for the right thing to do together since we filmed Pee Wee’s Big Holiday and it’s finally here,” 3:59’s Joe and Nick Manganiello told Deadline. “Very excited to get to work on such weird, wild project with him.”
Film Bridge International is launching sales on the project in Cannes.
Blackmore’s Mountain Man series features 7 books, the first one published in 2011.
