Your Complete Guide To Every Disney Remake, Sequel And Spinoff In The Works

The Jungle Book 2

Crew: Jon Favreau will film the sequel to his own reboot. Justin Marks is likewise returning to pen the script.

Cast: No one has been confirmed yet, but we imagine most of the original’s cast will be back. Namely, Neel Sethi, Bill Murray, Ben Kingsley, Lupita Nyong’o and Scarlett Johansson. We wouldn’t expect more from Idris Elba’s Shere Khan, though.

Worth It? Definitely. The first one was a massive success and Rudyard Kipling had the foresight to write The Second Jungle Book, so they even have source material to work from. It’s to be filmed back-to-back with The Lion King, though, so let’s hope Favreau’s creativity doesn’t run dry by the time he gets to this one.

Christopher Robin

Crew: Marc Forster (Quantum of Solace, World War Z) is set to direct the script from Up‘s Tom McCarthy.

Cast: None at the moment.

Worth It? This one is basically a Winnie the Pooh version of Hook, as it will see an adult Christopher Robin returning to Hundred Acre Wood and his old childhood friends. It’s a fresh take on the franchise, then, and it will no doubt be as charming for children as the character’s adventures usually are, as well as perhaps having a more mature element about recapturing lost innocence.
