Robert Zemeckis’ Yellow Submarine remake shelved

That 3D-performance capture Yellow Submarine remake that we have all been clamoring for looks to be no more. Disney announced plans to abandon the Robert Zemeckis project for reasons shockingly having nothing to do with the fact that all of these types of movies look super creepy. There are rumors that this plug-pulling has a lot to do with the similarly styled, Zemeckis-produced Mars Needs Moms‘ failure to make, like, any money–but Disney denies these rumors. No word yet on whether or not Zemeckis will be taking this prospect somewhere else. If it ever makes it to completion, rumored to be playing The Beatles are Cary Elwes, Dean Lennox Kelly, Peter Serafinowicz and Adam Campbell.
