Disney+ Movie Flora and Ulysses is Currently In Production
Here at MickeyBlog, we are over the moon about all of the exciting new shows and movies coming to the Disney+ streaming service when it opens up later this year. From new offerings featuring Forky from the Toy Story franchise to Loki from the Marvel Universe, the line-up is sure to be an absolute treasure trove of awesomeness. And now we have one more fabulous project to add into the mix. This week Disney shared the news that production has officially started on Flora & Ulysses. The project is based on the Newberry Award-winning children’s book Flora & Ulysses: The Illuminated Adventures by Kate Di Camillo. We’re told this exciting new offering will be available when Disney+ launches in the U.S. on November 12.
Flora & Ulysses tells the story of a 10-year-old girl named Flora who is an avid comic book fan and self-avowed cynic. She saves a squirrel she names Ulysses who happens to possess unique superhero powers. This leads to a series of humorous, antic-filled hijinks that will change Flora’s life forever. Broadway Star Matilda Lawler is set to make her feature film debut in the show and Alyson Hannigan will play her mother Phyllis. Ben Schwartz has also signed on as her estranged father George.
The film will be produced by Academy Award®–nominated Gil Netter and James Powers and Katterli Frauenfelder serve as executive producers.
This is definitely we’ll be watching closely in the weeks and months ahead and guests are encouraged to keep following along with MickeyBlog for further updates on this and other exciting Disney+ projects.
