The long-running Escape to Witch Mountain saga from Disney is coming back to life with a Disney+ pilot titled “Witch Mountain,” Variety has reported this afternoon.
Bryce Dallas Howard (“Jurassic World” franchise, “Rocketman”) will lead the cast of the pilot, with Isabel Gravitt (“The Watcher”), Levi Miller (“Streamline”), Bianca “b” Norwood (“WeCrashed”) and Jackson Kelly (“Straight Man”) also set as series regulars.
The “modern take” on the franchise is set to follow “two teens that develop strange abilities and discover their sleepy suburb may not be as idyllic as it seems.”
Travis Fickett and Terry Matalas co-wrote the pilot and are executive producers. Augustine Frizzell will direct and executive produce the pilot.
John Fox and John Davis of Davis Entertainment are executive producing along with Gary Marsh. The Disney Branded Television series is produced by ABC Signature.
Based on the 1968 book written by Alexander Key, the first Escape to Witch Mountain movie was released in 1975. Most recently, Dwayne Johnson starred in a 2009 film reboot.
