Variety is reporting that Walt Disney Pictures is in negotiations with Zoe Green to write the screenplay based on an original idea she developed with the studio on gargoyles.
The project will not be tied to the popular Gargoyles animated series that Disney produced in the 1990s, or a comic book that was later produced by series creator Greg Weisman.
"Instead, it centers around a world and mythology that the studio was keen to explore." Sources said. Green came up with the idea with Disney exec LouAnne Brickhouse, who is producing the project at the studio.
