Disney is Developing a New Fantasy Animated Film with the Writer of CRAZY RICH ASIANS

Adele Lim is best known for her work as the screenwriter for Crazy Rich Asians. Osnat Shurer was a producer for Moana. Now, these two women are teaming up on an untitled fantasy-adventure animated film from Disney.

According to Deadline, Paul Briggs and Dean Wellins are currently set to make their directorial debuts with this project. The report also says that there will be an Asian element to the film, a female protagonist, a lack of music, and it will be a theatrical release.

Color me intrigued. As Disney has refused to comment, I will be treating this as a rumor.
