Written by Tab Murphy, and directed by Gary Trousdale and Kirk Wise, Atlantis: The Lost Empire features an ensemble cast with the voices of Michael J. Fox, Cree Summer, James Garner, Leonard Nimoy, Don Novello, Phil Morris, Claudia Christian, Jacqueline Obradors, Jim Varney, Florence Stanley, John Mahoney, David Ogden Stiers, Corey Burton, and Mark Hamill.
Even if Disney does decide to give Atlantis: The Lost Empire the live-action treatment (which is surely bound to happen eventually) it would not have Wise and Trousdale jumping for joy, with neither director being particularly enamored by this remake approach.
Well, unfortunately for those wishing to see The Lost Empire realized in real-life, co-directors Kirk Wise and Gary Trousdale are now putting these rumors to bed.
Fans are perpetually wondering which animated movie will be next in line, with recent rumors continuing to swirl that it will be 2001’s Atlantis: The Lost Empire.
