Is the live-action remake coming to an end? Disney executives say there are limited materials available

This year, Disney has launched four live-action remakes, with both Aladdin and The Lion King grossing over $1 billion worldwide. The trend of live-action animations that started with Alice in Wonderland in 2010 seems to be getting stronger. However, Disney's chief creative officer Alan Horn recently said that there are only a limited number of classic animations that can be remade, and this path may also come to an end.

The Lion King grosses $1.65 billion worldwide

Alice in Wonderland in 2010 started the trend of live-action adaptation of classic animations

At a recent roundtable of Hollywood studio executives organized by The Hollywood Reporter, Disney Chief Creative Officer and Co-Chairman Alan Horn said: "There is no doubt that at some point we will run out of movies like Aladdin or The Lion King, and we are getting closer and closer to that moment." He added: "There is no doubt that this is a finite universe."

Chinese elements make "Mulan" highly anticipated

Despite this, Disney's animated live-action films will continue to be popular in the foreseeable future. In the next few years, there will be a series of works such as "Mulan", "Snow White", "The Little Mermaid" and "Lady and the Tramp" waiting to meet the audience.
