Taika Waititi is reportedly directing the upcoming Tower of Terror movie starring Scarlett Johansson. 
We had already reported that Johansson also produces the project through her company These Pictures, alongside Jonathan Lia, with Inside Out scribe Josh Cooley handling the screenplay.

Tower of Terror is based on the popular Disney theme park attraction, which culminate with a free-falling elevator drop. The ride was previously turned into a 1997 TV movie starring Steve Guttenberg and Kirsten Dunst, though a new theatrical feature has been in development since 2015 when John August was tapped to write a story about five people in a rich hotel who take an elevator and disappear after it’s hit by lightning.

Besides Tower of Terror, Waititi will also work for Disney in an untitled Star Wars movie where he intends to star. Other highly-anticipated projects on Waititi’s plate include the Apple TV+ series adaptation of 1981’s Time Bandits and Netflix’s animated Charlie and the Chocolate Factory TV shows.

The next Waititi movie to hit theatres will be Next Goal Wins. It stars Michael Fassbender as Thomas Rongen, a Dutch soccer coach who led the American Samoa national team to victory after their historical defeat against Australia. 

The movie is inspired by the 2014’s documentary of the same name and is set to be released on November 17, 2023, after multiple delays.
