There’s no end in sight as to what Disney will remake into a live-action movie, but fans aren’t complaining. “Beauty And The Beast,” “The Jungle Book,” and “Cinderella” are already in the books and “Aladdin,” “The Lion King,” and “Dumbo” on the way.
The latest option for Disney’s live-action remake of old animated films is Gary Trousdale and Kirk Wise’s “The Hunchback Of Notre Dame” from 1996, which Disney says is in “early development.”
According to Deadline, the studio has enlisted Tony-winning M. Butterfly playwright David Henry Hwang, who also wrote the books for Disney’s stage musicals “Aida” and “Tarzan,” to write the script of the movie. Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz are reuniting to write music, and Josh Gad will be a producer along with the production company Mandeville films, which also produced “Beauty and the Beast.”
Gad, who played a gay LeFou in the live-action “Beauty and the Beast,” is also rumored to play the lead character in Hunchback. However, Deadline reported, “insiders at the studio said no casting is solid at this point.”
It was further revealed that Disney would pull elements from the animated film as well as Victor Hugo’s novel to produce the film.
