A movie project is all set to bring together some classic horror creatures- Dracula, Frankenstein, Mr Hyde.
Benderspink, a producing company behind Steve Carell's comedy 'The Incredible Burt Wonderstone' and Jennifer Aniston's 'We're the Millers', has partnered with Monsterfoot Productions to make the film, reported Ace Showbiz.
Based on an original idea by Monsterfoot principal Ahmet Zappa, the project dubbed 'Monster X' is going to bring together the classic scary creatures similar to 'The Avengers'.
The monsters will team up to defend humanity against an even greater threat to them all.
The 'X' in the title doesn't exactly show how many monsters are going to be brought to life to defend the good side, but it merely represents the Roman numeral. The initial script was co-penned by Zappa and will be polished into a screenplay before it's offered to buyers.
Chris Bender, JS Spink and Jake Weiner will produce along with Zappa whose credit includes Disney's 'The Odd Life of Timothy Green'.
