Creators
Niki Caro is a director of the movie. She is known for “Whale Rider”, “North Country”, “Mcfarland”, “Vintner’s Luck”.
After “Maleficenta” became real hit, Disney continued to bet on films based on the famous cartoons. Now when the tape “Beauty and the Beast” appears on the screens, company decided to move from the dead point work on one more ambitious blockbuster. Disney bosses wanted to entrust the tape based on the poem about Mulan to the director with Asian roots but could not agree with Oscar-winning Ang Lee. Ultimately, the studio management decided that the story of a brave Chinese warrior is best able to tell a representative of the womanhood.
According to the insiders, the studio, Disney entrusted work on the adventure blockbuster to Niki Caro, which first loudly announced itself in 2002 when her ribbon “Riding a Whale” won a dozen of prestigious film awards. Niki already has an experience of successful cooperation with Disney: two years ago her sports drama “Mcfarland” received rave reviews in the press and successfully paid off its $ 17 million budget. In August last year, it also became known that Caro is considered one of the main contenders for the director’s chair of “Captain Marvel”.
The script of the new version was written by E. Martin and L. Hynek. For the production of the project are responsible J. Reed and J. Winer.
