Disney considering trying again with The Rocketeer
Though it was primarily beloved by Art Deco and Jennifer Connelly fetishists at the time of its release, Disney will take another run at adapting its cult favorite The Rocketeer, with Vulture reporting that the studio has begun meeting with writers about a potential remake. It's still in the early stages, but it's easy to see why Disney might find the prospect attractive: The story combines the suit-enabled superpowers and Nazi fighting of its current Marvel heroes Iron Man and Captain America (a character recently adapted by The Rocketeer director Joe Johnston, as a meaningless tangential aside), but omits all the sharing with and seeking approval from Marvel.
