According to The Hollywood Reporter, Disney is developing a new film based on the character Snow White's estranged sister, Rose Red. The screenplay was written by Justin Merz which included a pitch from Evan Daugherty. Daugherty's credits include Universal Pictures' "Snow White And The Huntsman", Paramount Pictures' "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", and Summit Entertainment's "Divergent."
This take on the Snow White classic is said to be:
"A revisionist take that transposes Rose Red into the Snow White tale, making her a key player in the later part of the classic story. When Snow White takes a bite from the iconic poison apple and falls into her Sleeping Death, her estranged sister, Rose Red, must undertake a dangerous quest with Grumpy and the other dwarves to find a way to break the curse and bring Snow White back to life."
Tripp Vinson is producing via his Vinson Films banner.

With Universal's "Snow White and the Huntsman" essentially taking out Disney's chance at a gritty, live-action revisionist take on their classic animated "Snow White" film, the studio has decided to adopt a different approach.
The studio has picked up both a script by Justin Merz and a pitch by 'Huntsman' script writer Evan Daugherty which reworks the tale. The story? A revisionist take which focuses on Rose Red, a sister to Snow White.
Though Rose Red is a character that appeared in Grimms fairy tales, it is in an adventure that had no relation to the more well known "Snow White and the Seven Dwarves". Merz's penned 'Red' as a stand-alone feature, but then Daugherty came up with a new take which makes the story closer and more of a "companion piece" to the animated "Snow White".

When to expect all the upcoming live action fairytale movies, including Dumbo, Beauty And The Beast and two Jungle Books…
You’ve probably noticed the influx of live action fairytales gracing cinemas in recent years. This isn’t about to stop any time soon, since re-spinning a recognisable fantastical yarn with real people instead of animated ones always makes big money for the studio behind it.
This process has become so popular that there are currently more of these live action fairytales in production than Marvel Studios, DC Entertainment or Star Wars movies. That’s a lot of films. (A whopping 21 by our count.)
Although it wadsn’t the first movie of this kind, Tim Burton’s Alice In Wonderland – and its worldwide gross of over a billion dollars – can surely take the credit for kick-starting this trend. Here are all the in-development movies trying to repeat its success,...

The big screen take on Baywatch is sitting somewhere on Dwayne Johnson's upcoming schedule, with The Rock set to headline the new movie. Seth Gordon, of Horrible Bosses fame, was said to be in talks to direct the movie. As of yet, we're not sure if he's signed on the dotted line though.
One person who has? That'd be Zac Efron, who has been confirmed to co-star in the movie alongside Johnson. Furthermore, Johnson - who took to his Twitter feed to ratify Efron's casting - has revealed that the movie is going to target an R-rating. Want proof? Here's his Tweet....

Disney has added yet another beloved cartoon classic to its roster of upcoming live-action remakes: The Sword in the Stone.
Variety reports that Game of Thrones writer Bryan Cogman will pen the updated take on the 1963 film. Originally written by Bill Peet — and based on T. H. White's book of the same name — The Sword in the Stone told King Arthur's fictionalized origin story as an orphan who proves himself worthy of royalty as he does the impossible by pulling a sword from a stone.
