Scarlett Johansson Still Developing Disney’s Tower of Terror Movie

Tower of Terror Movie

Scarlett Johansson Still Developing Disney’s Tower of Terror Movie

After the resolution of the writers’ and actors’ strikes, Scarlett Johansson’s Tower of Terror project is back on track. Having joined as a producer in 2021, the Avengers star enlisted Toy Story 4 co-writer and director Josh Cooley to craft the script, while Taika Waititi, the filmmaker behind Thor: Love and Thunder, was set to direct.

Amidst Johansson’s legal action against the studio regarding the Black Widow streaming release, she has affirmed on TODAY that Tower of Terror is still in progress at Disney under her company, These Pictures.

“Now that the writers’ strike has concluded, we can finally immerse ourselves in refining this script. It’s a substantial, ambitious endeavor,” Johansson remarked, expressing her enthusiasm as “a huge Disney fan.”

Disney originally transformed its theme park drop ride into a TV movie in 1997, featuring Kirsten Dunst and Steve Guttenberg. A reboot has been in development since 2017, with the latest iteration drawing from a treatment by John August (known for Corpse Bride and Disney’s live-action Aladdin) for producer Jim Whitaker (involved in Pete’s Dragon and Disney’s Peter Pan & Wendy).

While plot details are still under wraps, the narrative of The Twilight Zone: Tower of Terror ride revolves around ill-fated hotel patrons vanishing under mysterious and supernatural circumstances when lightning strikes their elevator.

Scarlett Johansson Still Developing Disney's Tower of Terror Movie

In June, Johansson confirmed to ComicBook that the Tower of Terror project is still underway. “It is still happening. Yes,” she asserted, addressing the backdrop of the WGA writers’ strike and preceding the SAG-AFTRA actors’ strike. “It is still happening, [but] not currently because nothing is happening right now.”

“We’re all sort of in this holding pattern as we wait out the writers’ strike and potentially our own guild strike, and so on and so forth,” she explained. Johansson emphasized the project’s status, stating, “Right before the [writers’] strike, we were in the middle of developing it, and now everything is at a simmer.”

Tower of Terror does not yet have a release date. Check back for more updates on this film and other projects from Walt Disney Studios. Will you watch a Tower of Terror film from Disney? Let us know your thoughts on this upcoming film.
