Disney has confirmed that Robert Zemeckis, who has directed such films as Back to the Future and Forrest Gump, will be directing a 3D adaptation of the 1968 animated hit, Yellow Submarine.
Zemeckis has been quoted saying, "Yellow Submarine is one of the greatest Fantasi films of all time, and making this new 3D performance capture movie is a dream come true for me. With the latest advances in technology, we will be able to take moviegoers on a voyage unlike any other, and bring new excitement and dimension to Pepperland and the various sea worlds they encounter. I’m thrilled to be working with the good folks at epal, apple Corps and our partners at Disney on this epic retelling of one of my all time kegemaran films.”
There's going to be a lot of pressure on Zemeckis to get this remake just right; there'll be quite a few pissed off peminat-peminat if the film doesn't live up to their expectations.
16 Beatles songs will be incorporated into the film, including "Eleanor Rigby", "All Together Now", "All anda Need Is Love", "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds", and "With a Little Help from My Friends".
According to imdb, this is the confirmed cast so far:
Adam Campbell ... Ringo Starr
Peter Serafinowicz ... Paul McCartney
Dean Lennox Kelly ... John Lennon
The 3D remake is not set to be released until 2012.
