Monster High ~ live-action (dir. Gerard Johnstone)

[VictoryAtNight]

The Monster High gang is heading to the big screen, and today Mattel announced an unexpected but rather brilliant choice of director for the anticipated project. In an official announcement, Mattel revealed that it has chosen M3GAN’s Gerard Johnstone to direct the live-action theatrical Monster High, which will be developed by Universal Pictures and Akiva Goldsman’s Weed Road banner. Johnstone is also at the helm of the highly anticipated M3GAN 2.0 sequel, and will be bringing that same magic to Mattel’s beloved franchise about a high school for monsters and all the crazy hijinks that ensue with Frankie Stein, Draculaura, Abbey Abominable, and more.

It would be nice to actually have a good version of this concept.

If my niece was still 9 years old she’d be stoked to see this

It’s perfectly normal for a “mature-minded” adult male to buy and collect these dolls………..right?

[drb999]

Yeah, sure.

The characters look very human-like, so I think this could work. The Netflix series "Wednesday" has the same main concept and it's built a huge fanbase, so I am glad that this got greenlit.
