Review: ‘The Incredible Hulk’

Stan Lee teams with Disney for 3 new films

Stan Lee

Stan Lee has teamed up with Walt Disney Pictures to create three new films. The titles of the three new movies, being produced by Stan Lee and Gill Champion, are as follows: Nick Ratchet, Blaze and Tigress. And … that’s really all we know about the films themselves. As is the SOP with Disney, any details on their projects are being kept extremely hush-hush. What we can be fairly sure of is that these three films will probably be marketed more towards the little tykes and tykettes.

However, here’s what we do know:

Nick Ratchet will be written and  directed by Richard LaGravenese (P.S. I Love You, Living Out Loud).

Blaze is being written by Gary Goldman (Next).

Tigress is being written by newbie Zoe Green. This film should not be confused with another film of the same title  being developed by Stan Lee, intended to star Michelle Rodriguez (Girl Fight, Resident Evil), which is based on a villainess from the Conan the Barbarian comic books.
