Disney keeps remaking its animated classics and many fans say they feel like carbon copies of the originals. Even some former Disney animators have told Insider “The Lion King” almost feels like a shot-for-shot recreation.
But are they just simple cash-grabs?
“Some adhere closer to the original stories. Some, like ‘Aladdin,’ take bigger leaps,” “Aladdin” producer Dan Lin told Insider in 2019 when asked what Disney is striving to do with these reimaginings. “The visual styles are all very different. So it’s almost like [the original animated films] are used as books or IP that these filmmakers are allowed to interpret in their own way.”
Insider went through Disney’s recent remakes since 2010 to discern how different they feel from their original animated counterparts. We’ve ranked the films from most to least original.
The results? A good portion of the films, outside the most recent remakes of beloved ’90s movies, are actually pretty different than you may remember.
