A live-action “The Magic School Bus” movie, starring Elizabeth Banks as Ms. Frizzle, is regaining momentum after six years in development.

Legendary Entertainment has acquired the rights from Universal, which initially optioned the project in June 2020. Meanwhile Rob Letterman (“Shark Tales,” “Detective Pikachu”) has signed on to write and direct the film.

In the ’90s, PBS adapted “The Magic School Bus” into a popular animated series, which aired in more than 100 countries and featured Lily Tomlin as the voice of Ms. Frizzle. An animated TV sequel, “The Magic School Bus Rides Again,” featuring Kate McKinnon as Ms. Frizzle’s sister, Fiona, debuted on Netflix in 2017.

Legendary Entertainment is producing the new “Magic School Bus” with publisher Scholastic. Producers include Iole Lucchese and Caitlin Friedman for Scholastic, Banks, Max Handelman, and Alison Small for Brownstone Productions, Marc Platt and Adam Siegel for Marc Platt Productions, and Mary Parent, Ali Mendes, and Cale Boyter for Legendary.

They honestly think Elizabeth Banks can deliver this line with as much depth & emotion as Lily Tomlin?

Man i only remember a few scenes

 

Miss Frizzle out of breath and they deflated the bus tires into her lungs when the school bus was inside her

 

And her saying something like "oh the sweet smell of gas" and all the kids going like "ohhhhhh miss frizzle"

 

I think i only whatched it once in a while as it aired at an odd time for me
