Dumbo

Anyone else miss the days of 2D animation?

Disney decided to keep their classic movies intact on the service.

You love “When You Wish Upon a Star.” You adore “Hakuna Matata.” These are not those.

This live-action adaptation of the animated classic is twice as long as the original with a lot more human characters.

The floppy-eared elephant is getting a dark live-action remake from Tim Burton.

Tim Burton’s live-action Dumbo movie is unexpectedly gathering quite a cast. From Eva Green to Colin Farrell to Michael Keaton, the lineup for this movie is already crazy good. Today, Alan Arkin is the latest to join the cast under the big top.

Tim Burton has officially begun production on his live-action version of Dumbo, the most depressing Disney movie of all time. (Okay, maybe that’s up for debate, but this movie wrecked me as a child.) We’ve heard rumors about the cast for a while now, from Colin Farrell to Danny DeVito and Michael Keaton, and they’re all true! The casting news, along with some plot details and an official release date was announced today during Disney’s live-action panel at the D23 Expo.

Former Batman Michael Keaton has lived long enough to see himself become multiple villains. After starring in this summer’s Spider-Man: Homecoming as the Vulture, he’s now in talks for another coveted baddie in Tim Burton’s live-action Dumbo remake.

Disney’s live-action Dumbo remake has been officially upgraded from another basic Tim Burton project that elicits little more than a shrug to a full-out curiosity worthy of an eyebrow raise. Between the casting of Eva Green and Danny DeVito, and the almost-casting of Will Smith, and now the potential casting of Colin Farrell, maybe there’s more to this movie than flying elephants — like, is Dumbo sexy now or what?

That Dumbo movie still seems to be, for all intents and purposes, happening, and with Eva Green in talks to star the ball continues to roll. Now, it looks like Danny DeVito — yes, you read that right — might also be heading to the big top.
