The list includes Jungle Book and Lion King director Jon Favreau, Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame directors Joe and Anthony Russo, and Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl director Gore Verbinski.
In addition, Disney apparently has several directors that they’re interested in seeing come on board the project.
According to the source, a Hercules remake is an active project that is moving forward.
The report comes from The DisInsider, which has dropped early info in the past which has turned out to be reliable, so this is more than just a simple rumor.
