Canyman vs Leprechaun was a propsed film in the 2000s inspired by the success of Freddy vs Jason. As the tile suggests, it would have brought together the stars of both the Canyman films and the Leprechaun films.
There's been very little information released about this film. Bernard Rose, the director of the original Candy, first told the public about the failed film sometime in the 2016- so he may have been considered for the role of director in Candyman vs Leprechaun.
The only other real information I could find was the reaction of actor Tony Todd who plays the Candyman. Todd was not very impressed by the proposal, feeling the film would have been disrespectful to his character. He indicated the film would have had a more comedic tone and compared the project to Abbot and Costello Meets Frankenstein.
This trailer focuses on the Leprechaun played by Warwick Davis.
The Leprechaun is a wise cracking fairy-like creature. Standing about three feet tall, he possesses great magical powers including the ability to grant wishes. The Leprechaun guards a pot of gold from which he gains much, if not all, of his powers. If someone should ever steal his gold, the Leprechaun will hunt them down and exact revenge. The Leprechaun almost constantly speaks in rhyme and one of his only weakness is a four leaf clover.
The cast:
Candyman.........................Tony Todd
Leprechaun.......................Warwick Davis
Music used:
Red Clover Main Titles
from the Red Clover OST
Beetlejuice Main Titles
by Danny Elfman
from the Beatlejuice OST
