Live-action Kim Possible movie in the works

Disney is looking to resurrect an animated series from 2002, Kim Possible, as a live-action movie for the Disney Channel. Kim Possible originally launched back in 2002 and ran for 87 episodes. It was nominated for an Emmy in 2003 and had two animated movies created for it.

Kim Possible featured a “typical high school girl” who happens to save the world when she’s not in school. She doesn’t do it alone though, Ron Stoppable and his naked mole-rat, Rufus, help out, as well as Wade, the computer genius.

“Mark and Bob created an enduring character and kids all over the world found a friend in her, an average girl who just happens to spend her off-school hours thwarting evil villains,” said Adam Bonnett, executive vice president, original programming for Disney Channels Worldwide. “Although Kim Possible ‘can do anything,’ kids and tweens found that this animated redhead was just like them. As we embark on the fun challenge of making Kim and Ron fully dimensional, I’m thrilled to be working again with Mark and Bob and to welcome the addition of a dynamic creative team – Josh, Zanne, Adam and Zach – into a world where anything is indeed possible.”

The live-action film is currently working on casting the project. Mark McCorkle and Robert Schooley, the creators of Kim Possible, will be writing the script for the upcoming film, as well as act as executive producers. Josh Cagan will also write, with Zanne Devine also serving as executive producers. The movie will be co-directed and co-produced by Adam B. Stein and Zach Lipovsky.

When the movie will release was not noted.
