In May 2020, Don Hahn, who produced the animated film, revealed that he will also serve as a producer in the remake.^[4] Hahn said that he wanted to approach the film in a way that can be appreciated by modern audiences, and that he wants the film to serve as a unique experince from the original film, similar to the stage adaptation.^[4]
