Justin Simien says he 'saw Barbie coming from miles away.'
Haunted Mansion was released back in July, and it had a few things stacked against it. In addition to getting middling reviews and earning a 37% critics score on Rotten Tomatoes, the movie had the disadvantage of being released only a week into the Barbenheimer phenomenon. Not to mention the fact that Haunted Mansion would have made more sense as a Halloween season release. Now, the film is streaming on Disney+ and available to purchase on DVD and Blu-ray.
"I certainly have heard the feeling from a lot of folks, and I can't say I disagree," Simien said of the film's summer release."This is a much better time to receive a movie like this." He continued,"I think with the movie coming out now... I think everyone's head is in the right space. It's just Halloween. It's the season you want to kick back with your family.
