Summary Disney's most exciting live-action remake is surprisingly flying under the radar. Even with the exciting announcements of the live-action Moana, Lilo & Stitch, Snow White, and several other upcoming Disney live-action movies, including the highly-anticipated live-action Lion King follow-up Mufasa, which will hit theaters in December 2024, there are even more that for the most part are going unnoticed.
1 Why Hercules Is Disney's Most Exciting Live-Action Remake The animated Hercules has exceptional characters, plot, and music Close Following Ritchie's success with Aladdin, which received mixed reviews from critics despite being one of the top 50 highest-grossing movies of all time, his involvement in Hercules is even more exciting than his return for Aladdin 2.
Hercules Can Get Right What Previous Disney Remakes Have Not Disney has to make the best use of its CGI-heavy production & expensive budget Despite the promise of modern-day Disney live-action adaptations that more or less began with Kenneth Branagh's Cinderella in 2015 and Jon Faverau's The Jungle Book in 2016, both of which were among the highest-grossing films of their respective years, Disney has seen a recent slump in its live-action offerings.
Doing Live-Action Hercules Justice Is Still A Big Challenge For Disney Disney needs to go all-out to make Hercules even better than the celebrated animated film The original Hercules remains a classic and will always be a fan-favorite of Disney's animated movies. Disney seems rather adamant about its live-action ambitions even though some of them have been massive disappointments while others have been mega hits.
