THE LEGO NINJAGO Movie Director Charlie Bean Will Take On Live Action LADY AND THE TRAMP

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Charlie Bean, who directed The Lego Ninjago Movie, is going to the dogs. Bean has been chosen to helm the live-action/CG hybrid remake of Disney's animated classic, Lady and the Tramp.

Brigham Taylor (The Jungle Book) is producing the project for Disney's digital streaming service that will launch in 2019.

The service will have four to six movies a year among content that will include film and TV offerings from Disney brands Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars.

The Lady and the Tramp is a classic 1955 Disney animated film which tells the love story between a pampered Cocker Spaniel named Lady and a streetwise mongrel named Tramp. Lady finds herself out on the street after her owners have a baby and is saved from a pack by Tramp, who tries to show her to live her life footloose and collar-free. More doggone adventures ensue.

The centerpiece of the movie is the candlelit spaghetti dinner in an alley while two human cooks sing and play "Bella Notte," considered one of the most iconic scenes in Disney and movie history. Andrew Bujalski has written the script for the upcoming remake.
