Disney4me Posted Tuesday at 07:33 PM Report Posted Tuesday at 07:33 PM Wait! Disney, didn’t you already give us a Sleeping Beauty adaptation? It’s safe to say our first thought when we heard a new Sleeping Beauty movie was in the works was confusion. ©Disney Of all the Disney movies to be getting a new adaptation, we expected it to one that hasn’t already gotten a remade version. So let’s dive into all the limited details we have so far about what we can expect from this new project. Deadline has shared that Dan Trachtenberg will be developing a brand-new project inspired by Sleeping Beauty. So far, we know that this project is an original idea that draws inspiration from the classic Disney Princess film; it is also in the very early stages of development. Trachtenberg, alongside Rayna McClendon, created the ideas for this new story, and Alex Anfanger and Dan Schimpf are confirmed to be creating the script. ©Disney While very few details have been released for this project, it has been confirmed that it will not be related to or connected to the Maleficent films. That was our first thought upon hearing about this new project. Disney, especially in recent years, has been known for remaking classic animated films into live-action adaptations. So when we heard a new Sleeping Beauty film was in the works, we thought it might be a live-action adaptation of the film. ©Disney However, we already got a live-action interpretation of Sleeping Beauty with Maleficent that was released in 2014, and then the sequel Maleficent: Mistress of Evil that came out in 2019. While these movies mainly focused on Maleficent and her character journey, Aurora was a big part of the story as well. So many people thought this was the only version of a live-action Sleeping Beauty movie that we would be getting. ©Walt Disney Studios And that still might remain true; this announcement did not confirm that the new story would be a traditional live-action retelling. Instead, it highlighted how Trachtenberg is working on an original story that is drawing inspiration from the classic film. This means it is likely we will be getting a unique and fresh take on Sleeping Beauty rather than a typical live-action adaptation. ©Disney We are so excited to see what the future holds for this project, and we will make sure to keep you informed of any other news that is released, so stay tuned to Disney Food Blog so you never miss anything!
