Evan D.We are well beyond the point where anyone can reasonably expect much from a live action adaptation of a classic piece of Disney animation. Dozens of these glorified cash grabs have been dished out over the last decade and absolutely none of them have been good enough to even justify their own creation, let alone build on the original stories. And those were the easy ones, the slam dunks. Aladdin, Mulan, The Little Mermaid. These were the slam dunks and they ended up air balls. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs came with layers of trouble when adapting for audiences nearly a century later. Snow White (2025) tries to adjust for the dated source material and ends up a disaster anyways.

Evan D.Shortly after being attacked and infected by a wild animal in the woods, Blake (Christopher Abbott) looks to console his daughter Ginger (Matilda Firth,) who was understandably shaken by the events. He apologizes, explaining that sometimes fathers try so hard to protect their children from scars that “they end up being the ones scarring them.” For the director that smartly turned The Invisible Man into a meditation on believing women, this brief moment felt like the first thread of an idea that never fully forms in Wolf Man.
