is Disney making live adaptations now of all it's animated classics? Cinderella, this, live action Mulan on the way..... it would be so amazing for Hercules to finally get a proper movie treatment via Disney AND PLEASE GOD JUST CAST BEYONCÉ AS ONE OF THE MUSES
I'm all the way ready for this. Even though I now remembering reading about it, I was gasping when I realized Scarlett was playing Kaa. Here for Bagheera vs Shere Khan.
O MY GOD ... this slayed me ... never expected to be so hyped for a Disney kid film so much ... I think this will be one of the best Disney action adaptations yet
Well the Jungle Book(s) have a variety of stories/chapters so people have probably been influenced differently for a film? Idk I think Disney's looks amazing now watching it back.
