EW:
Mama follows Annabel and Lucas (Jessica Chastain and "Game of Thrones" star
Nikolaj Coster-Waldau as they are faced with the challenge of raising his young nieces that were left alone in the forest for 5 years. But they may not have been as alone as originally though. With del Toro producing, there's likely a supernatural element at work here, but hopefully it delivers better than his last producing endeavor
Don't Be Afraid of the Dark, a film that seemed scary, but just didn't deliver the goods.
Andres Muschietti is directing the film as his Hollywood debut, so we'll see what he brings to the table. Both films arrive in 2013.
