“There’ll be no honey, but there will be blood.” An early teaser trailer has debuted for a movie inspired by the classic Disney character Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. Director Lilton Stewart III is currently working on a movie called Oswald: Down the Rabbit Hole, set for release sometime in 2024 (no date confirmed just yet). It seems to be animation meets real people mix, though details are sparse on whether it will jump into live-action (kind of like Mickey’s Mouse Trap). The description only states it’s “a horror/adventure film inspired by Oswald the Lucky Rabbit’s Trolley Troubles.” The teaser features a look at the setup – a magical TV that teleports viewers into a place lost in time, shrouded by dark Hollywood Magic. A group of friends discovers Oswald’s come-to-life cartoon Rabbit, a dark entity that decides their souls are its for the taking. Scary! We’ll have to wait to see even more footage eventually, as this is only an announcement. Take a peek.
