Gargoyles Live-Action Reboot Officially in Works at Disney+ (comicbook.com)

A Gargoyles reboot is officially on the way. Months after a report suggested Kenneth Branagh could be helming a live-action reboot of the cult classic animated series, a new trade report says a live-action series is, in fact, in development at Disney+. While it doesn't appear that Branagh is working on it, the series has a pair of monstrous names attached. Gary Dauberman has been hired to write, showrun, and executive produce the series alongside James Wan and his Atomic Monster banner.

...fuck it, I'm down. Gargoyles was the shit growing up; worse case scenario, the new one sucks and we put something else on.

Edit - Maybe do a movie though? Kinda feel like stretching this out over an entire season is gonna give us like an hour of actual content, and a loooooooooot of filler.

I know what you mean. A lot of Disney+ shows have felt like they had two 90min movies worth of content that they padded so they could hit six 1 hour episodes. I'm totally on board with the idea of some lesser-tier stories from the MCU skipping a theatrical release and going straight to D+ but they're obsessed with turning a movie's worth of ideas into a tv series just so they can claim to have a bigger catalog of original shows. The end result is painfully boring shows that are a chore to get through.

I watched Kenobi as a movie. Someone put the effort into trying to edit it into something good.

Yeah I'm cautiously optimistic
