The Sword in the Stone (Live-Action)

Who will be race swapped? Merlin, Wart, Ector, Kay, Pellinore or Mim?

[Disney's Divinity]

Like with Hercules, I'm not as bothered if they do end up race-bending here. Ariel is just one of those characters where her hair is half of what makes her overall look / animation beautiful. Megara, Hercules, Arthur, or Merlin getting racebent wouldn't bother me quite as much--at least Megara is a brunette already--since their hair isn't as much a key part of their design and movement as it was for Ariel (or Rapunzel / Elsa). And none of them are named for how pale and white they're supposed to be like Snow White, so...

The OUAT Merlin was one of that show's better character adaptations, but IDK, I hope Merlin will be old here. They should get Ian McKellan, since he's already worked with Disney once on B&tB. Who they get for Merlin here is more critical than the other roles, he's the main character with a lot of dimension whereas Arthur could be played by any throwaway child actor.

Correction: it’s not actually canceled, it’s just “put on hold”, similar to Tron Legacy’s sequel, and Tron Ares is currently in production, eh? Not to mention That frozen was put on ice (:-) for a while, and we eventually got it, so who’s to say that this along with the live action Bambi won’t eventually happen someday, And could potentially be better for it?
