Production
In 1996, when Burton was the CEO and founder of Walt Disney Animation Studios' stop-motion studio division Skellington Productions. Tim Burton was going to produce the studio's planned third film "Toots and the Upside Down House" that was based on the book by Carol Hughes where a young girl still grieving over the death of her mother goes to a fantasy world inside her home when her dad still won't pay attention to her, where goblins, fairies and sprites leave there while helping the fairies battle an evil Jack Frost there. Tim Burton was attached to produce it, while Henry Selick was set to direct it (that would made it the third collaboration with Selick and Burton), with the screenplay written by Steven Soderbergh and co-produced by Disney's film partner at the time Miramax Films, which would have made it the first original animated film made by the company. However the film's production was shut down when Disney shut down Skellington Productions the animation production studio for the film after the poor box-office results of James and the Giant Peach.

But years later in 2021 during production of The Seventh Brother Slimeworks Entertainment recovered the Toots and the Upside Down House screenplay and declared he will finish up this unrealized project of Tim Burton.
