Zemeckis To Remake Yellow Submarine

Oscar winner Robert Zemeckis (Beowulf) is set to direct a Disney remake of Yellow Submarine. The original 1968 film was based on the music of The Beatles. Disney has apparently secured a deal that would give Zemeckis access to 16 original Beatles songs for use in the movie. The film will be shot in performance-capture 3-D.

The film is set for release in summer 2012.

  1. Does this really need to be remade? I think the Original stands on its own. It’s timeless, or rather it’s early 70’s and best left there.
