This story is currently still in rumor territory, but we are more than average confidence level in the likelihood of it being true. Apparently, Disney is looking back into their animated vaults yet again for a title to give the live-action treatment for. No, it’s not “Atlantis: The Lost Empire.”
According to Daniel Richtman and his Patreon, Disney is currently planning to develop a live-action take on “The Black Cauldron.”
“The Black Cauldron” has long had a strange relationship with viewers, as fans of the books are still torn about just how faithful the cartoon is. [Spoiler- it’s not]
There’s no word on whether this would be for Disney+ or a theatrical release, but we’ll let you know what we hear about this rumored project.
“The Black Cauldron” is currently streaming on Disney+.
Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief.
Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence.
Though she be but little, she is fierce.
