The Aristocats live-action adaptation is in early development at Disney.
According to Deadline, Disney is working on a live-action adaptation of The Aristocats. The animated original premiered in 1970. The live-action version will be directed by Peter Rabbit’s Will Gluck and by Onward’s Keith Bunin. It will most likely look similar to the the live-action Lady and the Tramp film from 2019.
