Sony has just revealed the main ensemble that will star in the newest installment of its hit movie-to-book film franchise "Goosebumps."
According to Variety, the movie is set to be top-billed by child stars Madison Iseman and Jeremy Ray Taylor, alongside fellow newcomers Caleel Harris and Ben O'Brien.
Ari Sandel, most notable for his works on "The Duff" and "When We First Met," will be taking the lead in directing "Goosebumps 2: Horrorland," a follow-up to 2015's "Goosebumps" which featured Jack Black, Odeya Rush, and Dylan Minnette in starring roles.
Returning to produce the film will be Original Film's Neal H. Moritz and Silvertongue Films' Deborah Forte.
The film franchise is based on the popular horror book series by author R.L. Stine which has sold over 350 million copies worldwide. Although based on the book series, 2015's "Goosebumps" featured an original story. The story followed Black, playing author Stine, after his manuscripts magically give life to the monsters he has written, wreaking havoc in his small town Madison, Delaware.
The first film in the intended franchise grossed $150 million at the box-office, which is double its initial funding.
Sony has yet to reveal details on the upcoming film, plot-wise. With regard to casting, it is still unknown if Jack Black has signed with the studio to reprise his role in the upcoming sequel.
Iseman and Taylor are no strangers to the big screen. The former starred in Sony's Jumanji reboot while the latter played the character "Ben" in Stephen King's "IT" in 2017. Meanwhile, Harris and O'Brien have been killing it on commercial screens as well, with Harris having a recurring role in Stephen King and J.J Abram's "Castle Rock" and O'Brien appearing in "Manchester by the Sea."
The new "Goosebumps 2" will see an official theatrical release on Sept. 21.
