Always interested in Del Toro's stuff, but it'll be while before we see anything on this. Production isn't set to start until early 2014.

Directed by Guillermo del Toro
Guillermo del Toro has found the first occupant for his haunted house thriller "Crimson Peak," as Emma Stone is in early negotiations to star in the Legendary Pictures movie.

While the deal is not completed, Stone is expected to star in the pic that del Toro will direct.

Legendary will produce and be a participating financing partner on the movie, with Universal Pictures retaining an option to also finance at a later date. The film is set to begin shooting in February 2014.

Haunted house pics have seen a resurgence in recent years after FilmDistrict's "Insidious" and Paramount's "Paranormal Activity" franchise hit big at the box office.

Jessica Chastain is following up her Oscar-nominated role in "Zero Dark Thirty" with Universal's horror pic "Mama," which bows this weekend and is also exec produced by del Toro.

New Line has "The Conjuring" which stars Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson with James Wan directing. The studio is so high on the project that they have dated it to bow in the thick of the summer box office season with a July 19 bow skedded.

Stone was most recently seen in Warner Bros. "Gangster Squad," which opened last weekend and lends her voice to the DreamWorks Animation pic "The Croods." She is also expected to start shooting Sony's "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" sometime this year.

The combo Cumberbatch/Del Toro could be something really special. Very good news and very good casting.
