Disney sparks outrage as it announces ‘sensitive’ Bambi reboot and fans fume ‘ruining another classic!’
DISNEY has sparked fan outrage over “sensitive” Bambi remake – with many complaining it’s “ruining another classic”.
The film is one of many that will be given a live action remake.
Disney executives released details about the proposed Bambi revival, but instead of being ecstatic, fans reacted with rage.
The producer disclosed that changes will be made for its “sensitive audience,” after Disney was hit backlash.
The writer said: “Not to spoil the plot, but there’s a treatment of the dying mom that I think some kids, some parents these days are more sensitive about than they were in the past.
“I do think there is a way to update Bambi and our take on it was did give a little bit more of a scope to it.
She added: “I just think that to be able to bring it to life for kids these days in a way that maybe they relate to a little bit more would be of service to the original,” Lindsey concluded.
In addition to physical differences from the original film, major changes will be made to the film’s depiction of Bambi’s mother’s death.
She reassured supporters that the changes will respect the 1942 classic despite this.
