Disney‘s remake of a classic musical finds its writer in Danny Strong, who will be taking on the latest adaptation of the Dickens tale of Oliver Twist.
This latest development for Disney’s Oliver was revealed by Deadline, who confirmed that Strong has officially been brought on board to write the script for the upcoming musical.
