Here’s our dream casting for ten animated classics begging to make the leap from drawings to real life.
Lets face it, Disneys not stopping with the live-action remakes anytime soon.
Some deserve a second chance, others are too good to pass up.
Encanto / Big Hero 6
Daniel Kaluuya as Dr. Sweet?
Treasure Planet
Remember this sci-fi spin onTreasure Island?
And just picture Willem Dafoe as the Horned King… those nightmare faces he can make?
Perfect for Disneys most terrifying villain.
Pair him with Ian McKellen as an eccentric, somewhat absent-minded Merlin, and youve got magic.
Those transformation sequences where they turn into different animals would be stunning with todays tech.
Disney
Frozen
Imagine seeing a real Ice Palace (or at least photorealistic).
For Kristoff, John Krasinski has that perfect Im annoyed but secretly charmed by you energy.
Moana
The ocean journey deserves the same treatmentThe Lion Kinggot, but with actual humans playing the leads.
Disney
Keep Dwayne Johnson as Maui because, seriously, who else could do it?
That sequence where the ocean parts to make a path?
The bioluminescent realm of monsters?
Disney
Take my money now.
Isabela Merced could perfectly capture Mirabels outsider perspective and stubborn optimism.
Tangled
Rapunzel locked in her tower with magical growing hair seems ripe for the live-action treatment.
Disney
Glen Powell has that smolder down pat and would make a Flynn Rider worth falling for.
LaKeith Stanfield could hit all the right notes as the charming but spoiled Prince Naveen.
Plus, those flying sequences over the city would look straight-up gorgeous.
