Plot details are being kept secret, and Johnson is not currently expected to star. He will produce alongside Dany Garcia and Hiram Garcia, with Melissa Fried overseeing for Seven Bucks; Matt Smith is also producing through Electro Corduroy Entertainment. Montemayor recently worked on Disney’s live-action Tangled, scheduled for cinemas on 31 March 2028, and is writing another Disney project, the Cinderella spin-off Stepsisters.
