mystery Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 (edited) HOLLYWOOD REPORTER: Live-Action ‘Moana’ in the Works from Dwayne Johnson, Disney And, up until now, it has not remade any title from the 21st century, preferring to keep some distance from animated and classic versions. But the studio’s strategy now seems to be in its latter stages and it may not be long before movies such as Frozen or Tangled are targeted next. Already a Lilo & Stitch movie is in pre-production for a summer shoot. Fan response has been one reason for the distance but Disney is betting half a dozen years isn’t that short in a nostalgia-fueled culture that cycles through idea faster than a girl on a camakau escaping coconut pirates. Disney’s strategy is now also inspiring some other studios with animation libraries to look into their catalogs to find titles for live-action remakes. Universal is prepping to film this summer a remake of How to Train Your Dragon, it’s beloved and now-classic movie from 2010.

AdamL44 Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 One of the most patently stupid decisions this company has made in a long time. do they truly have such little confidence in their animation department The OG film came out like yesterday ... there is no way this isn't going to be a cheap looking CGI-driven mess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can safely assume that Tangled is next and a Frozen remake will be released before the decade ends as well. What is troubling for them is that they do appear to be running out of ground with their existing content and what they can milk from that. Marvel is headed for a big slup as well. Their most popular and easily bankable hero (Spider-Man) isn't even owned by them. Might not be a good decade for them overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoJo Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 I guess it makes sense to remake it now while Auli’i Cravalho is still young, but it’s only been seven years what Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlamSlam Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 These Disney live action remakes are a joke and need to stop. They never better the originals. Besides, isn't the original Moana only a few years old? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Da Vinci Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 This has to be a late April Fools joke But the Rock is also unbelievably greedy and egotistic (see: The Fast and Furious movies) so I'm not THAT surprised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Da Vinci Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Why not make a sequel first like Frozen and Zootopia The Rock literally just wants to portray the character in person with his actual face while he's still young? The level of egotism The CGI will be so bad ugh imagine if they waited for 2030/2040 CGI instead when Avatar level CGI is the new norm UGH not to mention the nostalgia I'm kinda melting down over a kids movie LMAO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
