Coop 14,968 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Disney is set to make a live action film out of another animated classic, Mulan. EW can confirm that Disney has ordered a script for a live-action take on the tale of Hua Mulan, the hero of Disney’s 1998 animated film. That version had Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. star Ming-Na Wen voicing the titular hero. The Hollywood Reporter first reported the news. Disney has purchased a script from writing duo Elizabeth Martin and Lauren Hynek with Chris Bender and J.C. Spink attached to produce. No release date or casting has been announced for the in-development project, but it can be added to the growing list of live-action takes on Disney’s vast catalog of beloved animated films. Cinderella recently debuted No. 1 at the box office and has so far earned over $330 million worldwide. Disney also has a live-action Beauty and the Beast in the works, starring Emma Watson, coming in 2017, while another Alice in Wonderland is set for 2016. A new The Jungle Book is also planned for 2016, and a live-action Dumbo with Tim Burton directing is said to be in the works. http://www.ew.com/article/2015/03/30/disney-developing-live-action-mulan-film Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haroon 49,685 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 So in the next few years we can expect all of our Disney classics to be released in live-action versions one by one? I guess this is a good way for the newer generation to enjoy them if they're passed the stage of enjoying flat animation I hate to say it but I'm probably one of those people that would like it kept as it is for nostalgia's sake, but I guess if I don't enjoy this remake then I'll always have the perfect original to fall back on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didymus 32,745 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Yawn. I mean, seriously. What kind of lazy money grab. The movie was bashed in China as well, so I'm a bit surprised they chose this particular one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

elijahfan 23,564 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 So.... Alice in Wonderland, Snow-White and the Huntsman, Maleficent, Cinderella, and now Beauty and the Beast and Mulan. Ok, this was exciting at first, but now it's just distressing. The current state of the film industry frightens me more and more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Angel 128 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 This is great. More Asian actors to shine considering they're literally invisible in Hollywood film. This will be exciting if done right! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
