Disney is making so many remakes it's throwing me off.

Even better!  The writer also helmed Scream 3, The Ring 2, Skeleton Key, Brothers Grimm, Blood and Chocolate, and the Transformers sequels.  Working with a visionary right there.

Happening.

 

 

Quote

However it is believed that the Cruella spin-off, which is being written by Kelly Marcel, will be released on one of the dates in 2018.

 

 

Quote

The studio announced several release dates for upcoming live-action movies without confirming which films had been allocated to each slot.

We are probably just a few years away from Toy Story and Frozen Spin-offs.

At this point, you should know that's not how it works.

Why is a horror writer doing a (presumably) children's movie? If he scares away too many kids with the story...

You're right.  At this point I should know that Ehren Kruger is a nominal writer for the film.  In actuality, Mickey Mouse is writing the script so that they can fit with his vision and placing it under writer's names to pin it on them if it's bad.  I knew it!

Jungle Book 2, Lion King 2, Aladdin 2, BatB 2, Maleficient 2, Cinderella 2, Mulan 2, Dumbo 2, etc etc

 

I actually hope they make a Jungle Book 2 and set it several years later.

 

Portrayals of a grown-up Mowgli are so rare nowadays and it's not like there isn't a wealth of ideas from the Kipling novels they can't put their own twist on.

He'll scare them off with the writing.

Then you'll jump off the bandwagon so fast you'd think it was Texas.
