The script by Bill Marsilli is an original story revolving around Captain Nemo as he creates his warship, the Nautilus.
The original was Disney’s first live-action film and was the second highest grossing film the year it was released. It also won three Oscars. Obviously, Disney is hoping to have a repeat performance.
