Top Disney Live-Action Remakes Ranked

By HunterMay 22,2025

Disney's venture into live-action remakes of its iconic animated films began in the '90s with movies like *101 Dalmatians* and *102 Dalmatians*. However, it was the massive success of *Cinderella* in 2015 and *The Jungle Book* in 2016 that truly set the stage for a new era. When *Beauty and the Beast* crossed the billion-dollar mark in 2017, it solidified Disney's commitment to this lucrative path. Now, with the much-anticipated live-action remake of the beloved *Lilo & Stitch* hitting theaters this week, closely followed by *Snow White*, we're inspired to compile our own list of the Best Live-Action Disney Remakes.

While some die-hard Disney fans may view these remakes skeptically, feeling they're more about cashing in than genuine storytelling, there's no denying that among these films, there are some true gems. Directors who have a deep respect for the original material often bring these stories to life in fresh and emotionally resonant ways. Whether you see these remakes as soulless or as a new appreciation of classic tales, there's something for everyone. What's your favorite live-action Disney remake? Did it make our list? Cast your vote in our poll below and discover if it's included.

(Note that this list focuses exclusively on remakes, not prequels, sequels, or reinterpretations of characters like *Maleficent*, *Cruella*, or *Christopher Robin*.)
