Now they just gotta get Dwayne Johnson involved somehow!The Hollywood Reporter wrote:The studio has hired Geneva Robertson-Dworet (Captain Marvel, Tomb Raider) and Lindsey Beer (Sierra Burgess Is a Loser, Chaos Walking) to pen the screenplay for the live-action remake.
Insiders say the studio views Bambi as a type of companion piece to its remakes The Jungle Book and The Lion King, which were not live-action per se but certainly made to look that way. The two, both hits (Lion King generated $1.65 billion when it was released last year), were made using envelope-pushing CG technology to create ground-breaking photo-realistic and immersive worlds of nature. The studio is cognizant that Bambi is less epic in scope and story and is not aiming to shoehorn a larger narrative onto the classic tale.

You can’t just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!

It would actually be quite cool if Patrick Stewart returned.

Ohh, that’s right, I totally forgot that Stewart played Bambi’s dad in the DTV sequel. Lol. (At first I wasn’t sure what you meant! )

My bad, the forum didn't take my edit!
Patrick was great in the role. "A prince does not woo hoo". All-around great sequel... or rather midquel!

Maybe the hunter will get a backstory? Try and humanize him... Actually strike that. When you get down to it, there isn't much plot to lift from the original, so there's certainly wiggle room to do something new here and there.

Fans are genuinely worried about how a certain death scene will play out. Frankly, I'm not. I'm sure the scene will be a shot-for-shot and much like the Lion King redo, feel emotionless. Sure it was sad, but that's more because of the music and picturing the animated.
