Live Action Winnie the Pooh Reportedly In The Works By Disney
We’ve got an interesting little smackerel for you! According to a recent piece in We Got This Covered, Disney is apparently considering a live-action version of Winnie the Pooh!
Disney definitely has a fever for live-action remakes these days with Pinocchio, Peter Pan, The Little Mermaid, Robin Hood and more apparently in the works! This trend shows no signs of slowing with the news that the studios is reportedly turning its attention to Hundred Acre Wood.
Though we find most of the rumors on We Got This Covered to be really accurate, this one surprised us given that it’s only been two years since the studio released Christopher Robin in theaters. However, sources tell us that though plot details remain scarce, the project won’t be in any way related to Christopher Robin which saw Christopher (played by Ewan McGregor) as a grown man who reconnects with his childhood and his family by revisiting Winnie the Pooh and friends.
Christopher Robin was wildly successful at the box office making it the highest-grossing Winnie the Pooh movie ever made but it looks like Disney has other plans in store for the sequel. We Got This Covered speculates that a remake may veer more towards the traditional Winnie The Pooh stories from Christopher Robin’s childhood and we have to agree that this route seems the most likely.
What we do know is that it is early days for the project and as of yet Disney has released no information about live-action Winnie the Pooh. However, this is a story that we’ll continue to follow closely here at MickeyBlog so keep following along and we promise to keep you updated.
