Disney's next planned franchise movies...

[Archae]

AGGGGHHHHH!!!

Deadline reported yesterday on the 50th anniversary of the famous (and famously creepy) ride that Disney has hired Jon Turteltaub to direct an “It’s A Small World” feature. Jared Stern pitched the movie and will likely write the script. Stern, Turteltaub and The LEGO Movie’s Dan Lin will produce what Deadline says is envisioned as a “potential franchise for the studio.” Turteltaub has directed Cool Runnings and the National Treasure franchise (among other things, yes, but those those two credits make for fascinating juxtaposition). Jared Stern wrote the screenplay for Mr. Popper’s Penguins and The Internship, and will reportedly be working on The LEGO Movie 2.

1. A movie about humans... not really weird

I don't see what's so weird about them making a movie based on the Small World ride. It doesn't literally have to be based on the ride itself. They just have to come up with a story for the people featured on the ride.
