It sounds like maybe this movie isn't happening anytime soon.
It has been about four years since Joe and Anthony Russo started developing a live-action version of Disney's Hercules . The fantasy film, which was announced in 2020, is apparently still mired in development hell, though. Speaking recently with Total Film, the duo had some bad news for fans of the Disney animated classic: the live-action adaptation still doesn't have a script.
"Waiting on a script" is all fans get out of the interview, which took place at the Sands: International Film Festival in St Andrews, Scotland. It is not immediately clear how closely the live-action reimagining will hew to the animated movie. There was a lot of lore built up in Hercules's own spinoff TV show, which could theoretically be mined to keep hardcore fans happy even if, like Mulan, more cartoonish elements of the story are omitted from the live-action version.
