Is ‘Snow White’ Disney’s Next Live-Action Movie?
Disney has been cranking out the live-action movies the past few years. Just last weekend, the live-action “Aladdin” was released and later this Summer, we will see a live-action “The Lion King.” That’s’ in addition to the “Dumbo” that was out earlier this year. But Disney isn’t stopping there! Per Variety , there might be a live-action “Snow White” in the works.
Variety is reporting that Disney is in talks with Marc Webb to be the director of a “Snow White” live-action version. Webb’s resume boasts directing “The Amazing Spider-Man,” “Gifted,” and “The Only Living Boy in New York.” Erin Cressida Wilson, who you may now as the screewriter for “The Girl on the Train” is also rumored to write the script for the movie. For the musical score, Benj Pasek and Justin Paul have been tapped. The musical duo is known for their work on “La La Land,” “The Greatest Showman,” and “Dear Evan Hansen.” Another Marc will do that producing – Marc Platt that is.
It’s been over 80 years since the original, animated “Snow White” was released. The hugely successful film, which was Disney’s first animated featured film, was part of what got Walt Disney Studios off the ground.
Disney has yet to confirm that the live-action version of “Snow White” is in the works. However, Variety is a very reliable source. Make sure to keep it here with MickeyBlog.com for all the latest on Disney news!
