With the exit of Disney studio chief Dick Cook, a few projects that were once on the fast track would ultimately be left behind in the wake of change. Enter the first victim, the McG directed Captain Nemo: 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.

Randall Wallace (Braveheart) has been brought aboard the vessel that will carry director McG and the folks at Disney 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.

Justin Marks was brought on board the 20,000 Leagues project to rework the original script, penned by a one Bill Marsisli, which was leaked onto the Web a while back.

Disney has signed McG to direct a remake of their very first live-action film, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. The new film adds the subtitle, Captain Nemo, as it will apparently be an origin story that follows Nemo’s creation of the Nautilus.
