10 Disney Live-Action Remakes That Won't Happen

10. Treasure Planet

Positive critical and audience reception is unlikely to be enough to guarantee a live-action remake of Treasure Planet.

The main reason audiences are unlikely to see a live-action Treasure Planet is that, like other films on this list, the film bombed at the box office losing Disney millions as it only managed a box office gross of $109.6 million against a budget of $140 million.

The box office disappointment of Treasure Planet actually led to the cancellation of a planned sequel which would have seen Jim Hawkins team up with Long John Silver to fight a villainous Ironbeard voiced by Willem Dafoe.

Therefore, given the fact that Treasure Planets sequel hopes were dashed due to poor box office performance it is doubtful Disney would reboot the franchise in live-action and risk more financial losses.
