The House with a Clock in Its Walls Release Date and Full Cast

Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment have announced The House with a Clock in Its Walls release date and full cast for the movie version of the John Bellairs YA classic. The movie will be released on Friday, September 21, 2018, where it will open, curiously enough, against ANOTHER Jack Black-led supernatural YA family movie – Goosebumps 2, along with the new Taron Egerton-led Robin Hood. It remains to be seen if the Goosebumps sequel will move dates, or if Black will have the rare opportunity to compete against himself at the box office.

In the tradition of Amblin classics where fantastical events occur in the most unexpected places, Jack Black and two-time Academy Award winner Cate Blanchett star in The House with a Clock in Its Walls. The magical adventure tells the spine-tingling tale of 10-year-old Lewis (Owen Vaccaro), who goes to live with his uncle in a creaky old house with a mysterious tick-tocking heart. But his new town’s sleepy façade jolts to life with a secret world of warlocks and witches when Lewis accidentally awakens the dead.

Based on the beloved children’s classic written by John Bellairs and illustrated by Edward Gorey, The House with a Clock in Its Walls is directed by master frightener Eli Roth and written by Eric Kripke (creator of TV’s Supernatural). Co-starring Kyle MacLachlan, Colleen Camp, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Vanessa Anne Williams and Sunny Suljic, it is produced by Mythology Entertainment’s Brad Fischer (Shutter Island) and James Vanderbilt (Zodiac), as well as Kripke.

Executive produced by William Sherak, Tracey Nyberg and Laeta Kalogridis, The House with a Clock in Its Walls will be released by Universal Pictures.
