    Kenneth Branagh is Disney's Directorial Prince Charming

    DateThu, January 31, 2013

    Disney was gearing up for a new Cinderella 'till Mark Romanek dropped out. The guy who bailed from The Wolf Man at the 11th Hour should really be trusted with $100 million only never again!

    Cate Blanchett is set as the evil stepmother and they seem to still want to make this version. Enter Kenneth Branagh as Vulture reveals he's in discussions with the studio to take over.  Talks are underway to keep it on track for a fall start in the UK. Jack Ryan must be further along than we thought.

    Did Branagh wake up one morning and say, "You know, I like fluff!" That's not snark on my end (I actually quite like the choice). It's just funny to think back to Branagh the younger man starred and directed in those Shakespeare productions. As he's getting on up there, does he like the idea of making films his kids would sit through?
