Disney Faces Setbacks with Live-Action Remakes as Bambi Loses Director

The departure of Sarah Polley and the halt of The Sword in the Stone production raise questions about the future of Disney's live-action adaptations.

Sarah Polley has left the directorial role for Disney's live-action Bambi remake, casting uncertainty on the project's future.
Disney has halted production on the live-action remake of The Sword in the Stone, with no clear plans for its continuation.
The departure of Sean Bailey, former president of Walt Disney Motion Picture Production, has led to speculation about the future of Disney's live-action adaptations.
Disney CEO Bob Iger has mentioned the cancellation of several projects that were not deemed strong enough, possibly including the Bambi remake.
Despite these setbacks, Disney continues to work on other live-action remakes, including Moana and Lilo & Stitch.
