2015 is shaping up to be a busy year for Disney, which also has Kenneth Branagh's Cinderella, Brad Bird's Tomorrowland and Pixar's Inside Out and The Good Dinosaur, Marvel's The Avengers: Age of Ultron and Ant-Man, and of course J.J. Abrams'Star Wars: Episode VII all set for release.
As yet, there's no word on casting for Favreau's Jungle Book, although it's been confirmed that Johnny Depp and Mia Wasikowska will both be back for Alice 2, which sees James Bobin (The Muppets) taking over directing duties from Tim Burton.
