UK, April 2, 2008 - Comic book legend Stan Lee has teamed up with Disney to make three original movies based on new characters created by the writer, according to The Hollywood Reporter today.
First up is Tigress, based around the feline villainess from Conan the Barbarian and with a script written by newcomer Zoe Green.
Details for the other two projects are even more scarce. The strangeley monikered Nick Ratchet will apparently be directed by Richard LaGravenese (P.S. I Love You) from his own screenplay, while the third project, Blaze, is being penned by Gary Goldman (Next).

Stan's forgotten to take his medication again.
Actual plot details are being kept under wraps by the studio, however, much to the chagrin of Lee, who told the trade mag: "You have no idea how frustrating that is for me, because I love these characters so much and want to talk about them."
Lee is probably the world's most famous comic book writer, having co-created Spider-Man, X-Men and The Fantastic Four. He believes that "it's not unlikely" that his new movie characters will eventually generate comic books.
Nice I like Disney movies.
