As reported previously, famed Disney animator Andreas Deja is being confirmed as working on the company’s “midquel” to the 1942 classic Bambi. The new film, currently in production under the title of Bambi And The Great Prince, is your basic teenage angst tale, dealing with Bambi coping with his Father, the Great Prince, and his finding of a new mate while an orphaned Bambi comes to terms with his Mother’s death. Despite some strong (and anticipated) backtalk at Animation Nation, there could be some hope: Andreas’ involvement could be great for the project, though many feel it is very sad to see an artist of his stature working on such a film.
