Guillermo Del Toro Joins Disney (I Reads You Juniors Extra)

Del Toro, the director of Pan's Labyrinth and Hellboy II: The Golden Army, has apparently joined with Disney to form the "Disney Double Dare You" production company. This union will produce books, cartoons, films, and merchandising based on what Total Film describes as "scary projects" that will still be family friendly in the Disney manner.

That has led ComicMix to speculate that this could mean we will eventually see a Dr. Strange live action film, because of a conversation about Dr. Strange that Del Toro reportedly had with Neil Gaiman. Nikki Finke discusses the Del Toro/Disney deal at Deadline Hollywood.
