[Loden Greatstorm]

So is this basically Disney’s King Arthur?

 

[Silvermoth]

Basically yeah. But with a Disney spin.

I'm keen on it. I hope they get Michael Palin for merlin

Disney's 'Sword in the Stone' Live-Action Remake Finds Director (Exclusive)



Okay.

Fresnadillo?

Bizarre and totally unsafe choice... so, yeah, I'm down with it.

No, seriously, the director of Intacto and 28 Weeks Later is doing a live-action Sword in the Stone for Disney? Is this real life?

 

[Silvermoth]

He's wonderful, I can't wait. To be honest I'm sad we haven't seen more of fresnadillo

 

[Infinity9999x]

I wonder if they would be open to adapting the rest of The Once And Future King? Given that SITS is an adaptation of the first third of the novel or so.

 

[sueb1863]

Somebody needs to remake the movie version of 'Camelot'.

 

[Silvermoth]

I wonder who they will get for Madame mim? Miriam margoyles would be perfect but I would love for them to have a multicultural cast

 

[sueb1863]

I'm guessing they'll change the really jokey ending of the original.

We have also obtained some character breakdowns on the film.

Wart (LEAD MALE 12-15): Caucasian. An orphan named Arthur, also known as Wart. Bright, witty, and stubborn. Take part in a tournament where he is revealed as king.

Merlin (LEAD MALE 30-60): Open to any ethnicity. an old and eccentric wizard who aids and educates Arthur.

Sir Ector (LEAD MALE 30-50): Open to any ethnicity. Arthur’s foster father.

Madam Mim (LEAD FEMALE 30-60): Open to any ethnicity. a black magic proficient witch and Merlin’s nemesis. LEAD

It looks like Madam Mim will be a leading character. I wonder if they'll try to make her more sympathetic.

 

[terry78]

Probably the main villain.

 

[The Shape]

The real question is...who will play the stone?

 

[Abudefduf]

Dwayne Johnson, obviously.

BA. DUM. TSS.

 

[DarkKnight88]

Helen Mirren as Madam Mim!

It’ll all come full circle.

 

[Silvermoth]

Mim pretty much has to be Julie walters I reckon. It’s hers to loose

 

[psylockolussus]

So is this basically Disney’s King Arthur?

Hopefully better and watchable.

 

[CaptainWagner]

Interesting that they're going for such a wide range for Merlin's age.

Sir Ector

Merlin

Madam Mim

 

[MOVIELORD101]

Huh. I would've suggested Sylvester McCoy for Merlin.

 

[Zant]

The world needs more King Arthur films....Lord knows we have been starved of them....

 

[samsnee]

So is this basically Disney’s King Arthur?

I’m fine with it if they do a proper Arthur story instead of trying to make it gritty and realistic like the last few reboots have tried.

 

[psylockolussus]

The real question is...who will play the stone?

It will be just an ordinary stone. It won't talk, move. Its just a thing just like in the previous adaptations. No one will play as the stone.

 

[The Shape]

It will be just an ordinary stone. It won't talk, move. Its just a thing just like in the previous adaptations. No one will play as the stone.

 

[Silvermoth]

Hold on everyone!

 

[kaypain]

Will just accept the fact that they plan on updated alot of their old classics and stop complaining.

 

[terry78]

They got a backlog of these things ripe for reboots.

 

[Schlosser85]

If Andy Serkis doesn’t play the stone, this movie is dead to me.
