A live-action Tinker Bell spinoff titled “Tink” has been in development for some time now at Disney. Details about the project have been scarce, however, the movie will reportedly be told from the perspective of Tinker Bell and Reese Witherspoon was considered to portray the famous fairy at one time. Witherspoon was also attached to produce the film as well.
According to a new report from industry insider Daniel RPK, Disney is now eyeing Jennifer Lawrence to play Tinker Bell in the film. No other details were shared but the scooper did reveal Witherspoon was very much still involved with the project.
As always, since nothing has been confirmed by Disney, we will treat this as a rumor for now.
Earlier reports indicated that Maria Melnik wass attached to write the movie however it’s unclear if that is still the case. She has previously worked on the Escape Room films and American Gods.
DisInsider also previously unveiled an early unofficial synopsis for the film which is as follows: Peter becomes gravely injured, “Tink” (as she’s referred to), makes a deal with the head fairy (named Variel Tarin) to save his life. This results in Peter staying a 9-year-old forever and her losing her voice. The story doesn’t end there though. After Peter meets Wendy, Tink becomes incredibly jealous. However, when Hook kidnaps Peter she and Wendy must team up to save him before it’s too late.
It’s unknown if “Tink” is intended for a theatrical or Disney+ release.
