Disney announced a slate of 19 upcoming films with release dates through 2020. In addition to Marvel’s Ant-Man 2, three untitled Marvel movies and the release date for The Incredibles 2, Disney also revealed dates for four new live-action fairy tales. According to Variety, the untitled fairy tales will be released on December 22, 2017, November 2, 2018, March 29, 2019 and November 8, 2019. But what could these untitled movies be?
It was inevitable: Disney is making a live action Winnie the Pooh movie because of course Disney would make a live action Winnie the Pooh movie. The studio’s tactic of bringing their animated properties into the live action realm has already paid off with Alice in Wonderland, Maleficent and Cinderella, so why not pay another visit to the Hundred Acre Wood and let a live action Christopher Robin hang out with a CGI Piglet?
This has been around for a year, but somehow people are just finding out about it. Which makes no sense, because it's incredible! The voice actor who does Winnie the Pooh was at a video game convention last year, and read dialogue from Darth Vader in the original "Star Wars"...but in the voice of Pooh.
This weekend (July 15th-July17th) might be the biggest for a summer blockbuster. 'Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows: Part 2' opens, and you can bet it will do big bucks. The animated 'Winnie The Pooh' also opens.
