As you may have heard, Disney is going full-steam ahead in remaking many of its classic films as live-action blockbusters. After the success of Aladdin in 2019, it was reported that Hercules was up next.
The director of the live-action Aladdin — Guy Ritchie — will be directing the film with Anthony and Joe Russo producing.
To be fair, every single remake has filled me with stress so why would this be any different?
"What does that mean?" you ask. Well, it seems the Russo brothers will be taking inspiration from TikTok.
"There are questions about how you translate it as a musical. Audiences today have been trained by TikTok, right?" he explained. "What is their expectation of what that musical looks like and feels like?
As for what fans can expect besides a TikTok-inspired musical Hercules, it seems like a lot will be changing.
Well, this sounds like it will be interesting, to say the least.
I'm curious to see how it will all pan out!
