If they did a live action one


I know there kind of is already one, but that was about Mal mainly. If they were to do remake this film, who would you cast?

Maybe Chelsea Brummett as sleeping beauty.

Prince charming would be Names Marsden. He played one already in ever after.

I think Ansel Elgort would make a lovely Prince Phillip. Zac Efron would probably be a contender too. I like the James Marsden idea, but he's probably getting too old :( Prince Phillip wasn't any older than 23.
I have no idea who could be Aurora. She'd have to be younger than 18 and I don't keep up with actresses in that age group.

I would've rather a live action Sleeping Beauty film than the Maleficent film. I mean, I didn't see it, but I thought it was odd that Stefan was bad in Maleficent despite being good in the 1959 version.

Metallica + Iron Maiden + Black Sabbath + Judas Priest + Pantera + My Little Pony = LIFE

I can't decide. With the live remakes thus far I've HATED the casting choices. I was so disappointed with the live action Cinderella and I'll be really devastated if Disney ruins Beauty and the Beast. I'm not thrilled with Emma Watson as Belle. I guess in my mind no one is good enough to play the live version of these characters.

I think the same is a little bit true for me, regarding no one being good enough. But at the same time, as highly as I think of Emma Watson as an individual, I think she's a particularly bad choice. (I so desperately want to be proven wrong about this when the movie comes out but the trailers have done nothing to assuage my fears...)

I really don't know about a live action version for Sleeping Beauty. I feel like Sam Elliott could have made a great Stefan a decade or two ago though!
