Prince Charming and Cinderella in Disney's "CINDERELLA."Walt Disney by [Gina McIntyre / Entertainment Weekly](https://time.com/author/entertainment-weekly/) ## Gina McIntyre / Entertainment Weekly Jul 7, 2015 1:43 PM UTC With the fairytale business continuing to boom in Hollywood, Disney has revealed plans to continue the run with a new live-action feature focusing on none other than Prince Charming. EW has confirmed that Disney has picked up a script by Matt Fogel described as a revisionist take centering on a handsome prince (it’s unclear whether the character in question is an updated rendition of the animated royal from classics such as _Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs_ or _Cinderella_). David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman are set to produce along with Tripp Vinson. The project was first reported by [The Hollywood Reporter](http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/disney-buys-live-action-prince-807039). Disney, of course, enjoyed success earlier this year with director Kenneth Branagh’s update of _Cinderella_, which featured _Game of Thrones_’ actor Richard Madden in the Charming role opposite Lily James fair lady. The studio is currently in production on a live-action rendition of _Beauty and the Beast_, directed by Bill Condon and starring Emma Watson as Belle and Dan Stevens as her beastly counterpart. _This_ [_article_](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/07/06/prince-charming-live-action-disney-movie) _originally appeared on_ [_EW.com_](http://www.ew.com) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3947750/disney-prince-charming-film/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3947750/disney-prince-charming-film/"},"headline":"Someday Your Prince Charming Live-Action Movie Will Come","datePublished":"2015-07-07T13:43:18.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-22T09:00:56.288Z","description":"Disney has plans to bring the character to life","url":"https://time.com/3947750/disney-prince-charming-film/","keywords":["movies","Prince","Disney"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt9382c1e6e91e07d4/698859c4cd1bbae3d36fc254/disney-cinderella-prince-princess.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Gina McIntyre / Entertainment Weekly"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt9382c1e6e91e07d4/698859c4cd1bbae3d36fc254/disney-cinderella-prince-princess.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Prince Charming and Cinderella in Disney's \"CINDERELLA.\"","caption":"Prince Charming and Cinderella in Disney's \"CINDERELLA.\"","creditText":"Walt Disney","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/movies/","name":"movies"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3947750/disney-prince-charming-film/","name":"Someday Your Prince Charming Live-Action Movie Will Come"}}]}] ```
