F

ans of Disney's recent release The Jungle Book, and Maleficent, will have something to look forward to as the studio has announced sequels for both films.

Jon Favreau reportedly will make a comeback as director for Jungle Book 2 while Angelina Jolie is set to reprise her role as Maleficent.

According to a report by AFP, Disney also confirmed a Mary Poppins sequel starring Emily Blunt and 101 Dalmatians spin-off, dubbed Cruella, with Emma Stone as member of the cast.
