[quote="AladdinsGenie"][quote]“The pandemic happened when we were really putting it together,” he explained. “There were a few changes with a few companies. It’s not dead. Every day is creating these beautiful stories. In my career, I just like doing fun stuff. What would I want to see and what would I want to hang out and do? So no, it’s not dead. It’s still going.” Magnussen previously told Screen Rant in 2022 that the film, which he pitched himself, was undergoing rewrites. Explaining the pitch process, he told the outlet, “I think I was 30 seconds in that movie, and there was no plan for Disney to do anything with it or whatever. And I just kind of went around to them. I was like, ‘Hey, I just don’t want this guy to die. I’ve really enjoyed living in this world, and I have some ideas that could be fun.’ To be the not-Prince-Charming Prince, you know? We always see Prince Charming, so I was like, ‘Let’s mix it up.'”[/quote] .............................................why?[/quote]

Nothing more nothing less. <br /> <br />Apparently it was the actor himself asking for it, and Disney+ greenlighted it, as they need content there now. So technically it wasn't the company coming up with this, but rather they just find the actor's suggestion as good enough for Disney+. <br /> <br />Sadly the reason this blew up on social media is the timing. With Mena's interview and this, people really say some not so nice stuff about both the company and Hollywood in general atm and can understand why they do that, even if I disagree on it, especially now looking into stuff a bit deeper. <br /> <br />Disney's best possible option atm is the announcement of the sequel. People want that anyway and with that Mena also would be back in acting.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Robo4900</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Mon Dec 09, 2019 4:39 am<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">I mean...
