Disney is ready to take on another of its classic fairytales with a new musical, live-action version of Snow White.

Erin Cressida Wilson, who penned the adaptation of The Girl on the Train, is in negotiations to write the script for the film, which will expand upon the story and music from the beloved animated classic.

The movie will include new songs, with songwriters Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, who most recently wrote the lyrics for La La Land, attached to pen the new music.

it's cool that DISNEY is doing it...
But after OUAT, Snow White & the Huntsman, and Mirror Mirror. I'm a little Live Action Snow White'd out. But hopefully it will be good.
 
You're find they are doing this with most of their classic cartoons. it's a legal issue to get around extending copyright on their films. It was in one of the papers the other day. It extends their copyright by 20 years or something like that. Disney have only copyright on a lot of their franchise for 56 years or something so they have constantly been lobying congress to extend copyrights laws and they have to constantly have ongoing works of their characters so the projected I think 18 live action films based on their cartoons are part of a long term copyright protection aim. Disney take copyright so seriously they pay serious money to keep it that way. Mickey Mouse should have expired and been in public domain in 1972 so it shows how much Disney work to stop that happening.

Marc Webb Eyed to Direct Disney’s ‘Snow White’ Remake

Heigh-ho, heigh-ho, it’s off to Disney Marc Webb goes. The filmmaker is in talks to direct the studio’s upcoming live-action adaptation of “Snow White.”

While the deal isn’t finalized, sources tell Variety that Webb is the top choice to helm the movie.

“The Girl on the Train” screenwriter Erin Cressida Wilson is in negotiations to pen the script for “Snow White,” which will expand upon the story and music from the 1938 animated classic. Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, the duo behind “La La Land,” “The Greatest Showman,” and “Dear Evan Hansen,” will write new songs for the movie. Marc Platt is on board to produce.

The original “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” cartoon, based on the Brothers Grimm fairytale, was first released over 80 years ago. It was Disney’s inaugural animated feature film and became a massive success for the studio.

There have been several adaptations of the classic tale over the years. Recent iterations include 2012’s “Mirror Mirror” with Julia Roberts and Lily Collins and Universal’s darker take, “Snow White and the Huntsman” starring Charlize Theron and Kristen Stewart.

This year, Disney is rebooting a number of its classics, including “Dumbo,” “Aladdin,” and “The Lion King.”

Webb, best-known for directing “The Amazing Spider-Man” films featuring Andrew Garfield, has also helmed indies like Fox Searchlight’s “Gifted” and “The Only Living Boy in New York.” He is repped by CAA.
