Hey, Disney Might Be Working On An Animated Marvel Movie!


For years it has been rumoured that Disney/Pixar would produce an animated adaptation of a Marvel superhero, mainly because Disney now owns Marvel. An apparentally reliable Disney blog Blue Sky Disney have hinted at the movie in the past and they’ve now re-hinted at this, claiming that it is a secret project by Winnie The Pooh co-director Don Hall. Although this is really just an assumption from Bleeding Cool based on their choice of words, but anything to keep us at the UTF offices going!

“That project, once announced will generate a lot of buzz in certain geek communities, as it’s going to surprise a lot of people for what it is and what it’s not. But it’s in the very early embryonic stage and it depends on how well the project is received upon the presentation that is being prepared for John [Lasster] and Ed [Catmull].

The projects competing for 2014/2015 are the uber-secret film from Don Hall, which will be a marvelously unexpected project if it ever gets the green light, and Nathan Greno and Byron Howard’s films which are deep in development.”

Hmm, geek communites you say? A MARVELOUSLY unexpected project? OK we’re really reaching here. What do you think of this? Which Marvel here would you like to get an animated makeover? Sound off in the comments below.
