The Forces Of Evil_** ” and “ _**Gravity Falls**_ ” alumni **Sage Cotugno**.\n\nA live-action reboot of the series for **Disney+** is currently in development at **Disney Television Studios** and**Atomic Monster** with **Gary Dauberman _(Warner Bros “Anabelle” franchise, Paramount Pictures “Street Fighter”)_ ** as showrunner and **James Wan** and **Michael Clear** _**(A24 “Backrooms”)** _ as executive producers. Dauberman would mention that the project was still alive in April 2025 during **Wondercon 2025**.\n\n“Back in 2020 I was working at Disney TV Animation development. One of the projects I touched upon was the now classic, Gargoyles.\n\nMy pitch was a respectful and simple continuation of the series: Canmore, with the Grimorium Arcanium, casts the Gargoyles back into a deep sleep while he overtakes the 5 Burroughs of NYC with crime lords and monster beasts. 25 years later, in 2020, once police commissioner, Eliza Masa, raises the Gargoyles from their spell and the fight to take back the city begins.\n\nThe art choice was a streamlined look, because I wanted full 2D animation and was reluctant to change the established core aesthetic.\nUnseen here is Goliath had lost his arm and replaced it with a cybernetic one.” - **Ciro Nieli**\n\n> View this post on Instagram ",
