As CinemaBlend’s Mick Joest said, Disney won’t stop making these remakes until they stop making money and if The Lion King’s performance is any indication, that won’t happen anytime soon.
Although I wonder what happens when Disney has tapped its well of true beloved classics dry.
Disney has made over $7 billion from live-action remakes in the last 9 years and this becomes the sixth film from Disney’s live-action arm (not just the remakes) to hit that mark.
