With these successes, it was unsurprising that Disney tried doing a LiveActionAdaptation again. ''Film/{{Cinderella 2015}}'' is a remake of ''WesternAnimation/{{Cinderella}}''. Unlike ''Maleficent'', it stays true-to-the-text for the most part and is still from the POV of Cinderella. However, the ''Cinderella'' remake adds new details and character elements to the story. It also [[AscendedFanon used a few long-held fan ideas]], such as how "Cinderella" is a nickname for "Ella" (or "Elizabeth"/[[SpellMyNameWithAnS Elisabeth/etc]]). The remake ended up selling well, and as a result Disney decided to create ''more'' remakes of various animated films of theirs.

** ''Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs'': Rachel Zegler is of Colombian-Polish descent and will play the European Snow White.

* ''Snow White'' (2024) -- based on ''WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs'' (1937); [[Film/FiveHundredDaysOfSummer Marc]] [[Film/{{Gifted}} Webb]] is set as director while Music/PasekAndPaul will write new songs.

* ''Film/TheLittleMermaid2023'' -- based on ''WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid1989'', starring Creator/HalleBailey as Ariel, [[Series/WorldOnFire Jonah Hauer-King]] as Prince Eric, and Creator/MelissaMcCarthy as Ursula while [[Film/IntoTheWoods Rob]] [[Film/MaryPoppinsReturns Marshall]] is set to direct. Music/AlanMenken returns to work alongside producer and fellow songwriter Creator/LinManuelMiranda for the soundtrack.

* ''Rose Red'' -- A SpinOff centered on Snow White's twin sister, taking place [[{{Interquel}} during the events]] of ''Snow White''.

* ''[[Film/Pinocchio2022Disney Pinocchio]]'' (2022)[[note]](released on Disney+)[[/note]] -- based on ''WesternAnimation/{{Pinocchio}}'' (1940); directed by Creator/RobertZemeckis, with [[Series/TheHauntingOfBlyManor Benjamin Evan Ainsworth]] as the titular character, Creator/TomHanks as Geppetto, Creator/CynthiaErivo as the [[RaceLift Blue Fairy]], Creator/LukeEvans as The Coachman, and Creator/JosephGordonLevitt as [[MotionCapture Jiminy Cricket]]

Music/AlanMenken returns to work alongside producer and fellow songwriter Creator/LinManuelMiranda for the soundtrack.

** In ''Film/{{Aladdin|2019}}'', the Arab Prince Achmed became the European Prince Anders. And while the Genie appeared as white when he was masquerading as an human (with visibly lighter skin tone than the Arab citizens of Agrabah), he is played by Creator/WillSmith in the remake.
** In ''Lady and the Tramp'', the white Darling became bi-racial as played by Creator/KierseyClemons.
** ''The Little Mermaid'': Ariel, who looked like a European woman originally, is played by an African-American actress. Her sisters, who were also originally white, are now a variety of races, representing the seven seas.

* ''Bambi'' -- based on ''WesternAnimation/{{Bambi}}'' (1942); A [[AllCGICartoon "photorealistic CGI feature-length remake"]] in the same vein as ''Film/TheJungleBook2016'' and ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing2019''; [[Film/TombRaider Geneva]] [[Film/CaptainMarvel Robertson]] [[ComicBook/GothamCitySirens -Dworet]] and [[Film/SierraBurgessIsALoser Lindsey]] [[ComicBook/TheMagicOrder Beer]] will co-write the script

** [[InvertedTrope Inverted]] in ''Film/TheLittleMermaid2023'' though, as Ariel has originally five dresses ([[ImprovisedClothes the sail one]], the pink one, the blue one, the magical purple dress, and her FairytaleWeddingDress). In the remake, the number fall to three: a dress made of gunny sacks, a blue dress, and a white and pink one with an identical design.

* CostumePorn: The live action media allow to do more sophisticated costumes (in terms of material and pattern), especially for females characters. In contrast with the two or three outfits they had in the original, most of the time, they have an UnlimitedWardrobe in the remakes. Jasmine in particular has some more splendid finery compared to her animated counterpart, and Cinderella's ball gown may be ''the'' most gorgeous gown ever seen onscreen.

* PoliticallyCorrectHistory: Several of the instance of RaceLift described below result in curiosities such as locations having a noticeable POC population during a time where there was none (''Film/BeautyAndTheBeast2017'') or depicting relationships between people of different racial backgrounds when they were highly improbable (''Film/LadyAndTheTramp2019'').

* ''Film/BeautyAndTheBeast2017''[[note]](the first film in the series to be [[TheMusical a musical]] like [[AnimatedMusical its source material]])[[/note]] -- based on ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'' (1991); directed by Creator/BillCondon and [[AllStarCast stars]] Creator/EmmaWatson as [[BrainyBrunette Belle]] (the titular Beauty), Creator/DanStevens as the titular [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold Beast]][[note]][[NamedByTheAdaptation now named]] [[AscendedMeme Adam here]][[/note]], Creator/LukeEvans as [[TheSociopath Gaston]], Creator/KevinKline as [[AdaptationalBadass Maurice]], Creator/JoshGad as [[AdaptationalSexuality Le]][[AdaptationalHeroism Fou]], Creator/EwanMcGregor as [[TheCharmer Lumiere]], Creator/IanMcKellen as [[ButtMonkey Cogsworth]], Creator/StanleyTucci as [[CanonForeigner Cadenza]], Music/AudraMcDonald as [[AscendedExtra Madame de]] [[AdaptationalNameChange Garderobe]], Creator/GuguMbathaRaw as [[RaceLift Plumette]], and Creator/EmmaThompson as [[TeamMom Mrs.]] [[NamedByTheAdaptation Beatrice]] [[WomenAreWiser Potts]]; Music/AlanMenken returns for the score while Music/ArianaGrande and Music/JohnLegend record a new version of the 1991 pop duet of the theme song originally recorded by Music/CelineDion and Peabo Bryson.

** ''The Little Mermaid'': Ariel, who looked like a European woman originally, is set to be played by an African-American actress.
