Children are still trapped inside due to coronavirus, and some of them may still be trapped inside when school starts again, making the idea of a magic bus that can go into space or shrink really small for excursions exciting and educational has never existed. It’s been more engaging. Maybe that’s why Universal is working with Scholastic Entertainment, Elizabeth Banks and producer Mark Platt to develop a live action. Magic school bus movie, based on children’s books and various cartoons of the same name. In addition to producing, Banks will be playing Ms. Frizzle, the powerful sorceress who has managed to bend the magical school bus to her will, that is, the “wild and adventurous teacher” who takes children on magical excursions with a magical school bus. . that she has for some reason.
That description (and this news) comes from The envelope, which unfortunately does not have much other specific information to share. We don’t know what kind of educational adventure Banks / Frizzle will bring to the kids, and we don’t know if it’s some kind of self-aware modern reboot that comments on the story of The magic school bus somehow. We are not sure if anyone would want that, but given Scholastic’s direct involvement, it seems an unlikely path.
