Disney Developing New ‘White Fang’ Movie

Walt Disney Pictures is developing a new adaption of the classic Jack London story, White Fang.

The former film, helmed by Grease and The Blue Lagoon director Randal Kleiser, was released in 1991 and starred a young Ethan Hawke. Set in the Yukon Territory in 1897, it told the story of a young man in Alaska during the Gold Rush who befriends a wolf dog, named “the white fang” for his sharp and white tooth.

The two go on many adventures and come across “starving wolves, Aboriginal peoples, grizzly bears and dogfighters,” explained The Hollywood Reporter. Shortly after in 1994, Fang was given a sequel titled White Fang 2: Myth of the White Wolf, which was directed by Ken Olin.

The Motorcycle Diaries’ Jose Rivera will be writing the new version of White Fang, alongside Lance Acord who will be making his directorial debut.

As of yet, it is unknown whether the new film will follow the original film’s plot verbatim, which told the story from the point of view of the wolf dog. It will definitely be given a modern adaptation with the London novel as its prime source.
