Can this lion find it's roar?
Disney has found relative success in revamping their animated classics. Alice in Wonderland kicked things off in 2010 when the live-action, Tim Burton take garnered over $1 billion at the box office. Since then, Sleeping Beauty, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast and Cinderella have all gone through the 'live-action remake' process, each one prospering at the box office. There's something a bit different about The Lion King, though. The film is, for many, already an undoubted masterpiece, and if Ghostbusters (2016) didn't already make it obvious, millennial nostalgia is a force to be reckoned with.
