4. Tink
The Original: The character of Tinker Bell was first brought to our attention in Disneyʼs 1953 animated movie, Peter Pan. Based on the play Peter Pan, Or The Boy Who Wouldnʼt Grown Up by J. M. Barrie, the character has seen many incarnations over the years. This year we will see the release of Joe Wrightʼs Pan starring Levi Miller as the titular character, although seemingly lacking his fairy sidekick. Don't worry though - Disney have decided to give Tinker Bell her own movie with a live-action retelling. The Planned Remake: Reese Witherspoon is attached to star as the iconic fairy, and the actress is also on board to produce with Bruce Papandrea. The script comes from Victoria Strouse, who has penned the upcoming Pixar movie, Finding Dory. Plot details are pretty sketchy, but it has been mentioned that the movie will be set in the world of the classic play with Tinker Bell the focus of attention. The project has only just gone into development and there is currently no timeline for it go into production.

Martin Scorsese fanboy; Can prove in 140-characters why Michael Bay is a hack, and I enjoy a bit of Gridiron at the weekends.
