According to Variety, director of recently loved Paddington 2 is in talks to helm Disney's upcoming live-action retelling of Pinocchio. Andrew Miano & Chris Weitz are producing with the script getting a rewrite from Jack Thorne. King's been very sought after since the success of Paddington 2 , & though I haven't seen it he also helmed the first. Which wound up being a surprise favorite for me the year it was released. I'm glad to hear we're getting a director of this caliber for this. I'm really excited for this one as it's got the live-action treatment before. It just paled in comparison to Disney's original animated feature. I'm in, what do y'all think of this choice though? Put it in the comments, like, & share.
