TWO HUGE shows that were set to premiere on Disney+ have been scrapped by the streaming giant in a bid to save cash – and fans are devastated.<\/p>\n
Live-action shows The Spiderwick Chronicles and Nautilus had already finished filming when Disney+ announced their decision to give both series the chop.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/p>\n
The Spiderwick Chronicles was made as a six-episode reboot of a popular children's film. <\/p>\n
The 2008 movie was based on a book, and features three kids discovering their family estate is a portal to a magical world.<\/p>\n
Fans were looking forward to seeing the new CGI design for the fantasy creatures and have hit out at the show being axed on social media. <\/p>\n
One person wrote: "It's a shame, the creature designs and world-building are really cool. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
"I love how the Hydra was reimaged as not actually being a multiheaded creature, but several creatures stuck together at the base of the tail similar to a Rat King."<\/p>\n
Another added: "This really sucks because I was really looking forward to it \u2026Disney Plus really needed shows like this."<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
A third disappointed viewer said: "Dang, loved these books and the movie. I hope it gets picked up by another platform, would love to see!"<\/p>\n
UK fantasy adventure series Nautilus also received the axe.<\/p>\n
<\/picture>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>\n <\/span><\/p>\n The show, which was filmed in Australia, tells the origin story of a man called Captain Nemo and his submarine.<\/p>\n Their adventures are based on famous sci-fi stories written by Jules Verne.<\/p>\n A disgruntled fan of the series commented on the news saying: "This is ridiculously short sighted, Captain Nemo and the Nautilus are so important to the history of Disney. Shame."<\/p>\n A second criticised the streaming giant, writing: "THIS IS ALREADY DISNEY IP (intellectual property) MAKE IT MAKE SENSE!"<\/p>\n Do you have a story for The Sun Showbiz team?<\/p>\n Email digishowbiz@the-sun.co.uk or call us direct on 0207 782 4220 .<\/p>\n We pay for videos too.
