Disney adaptations

Disney adaptations refer to the process by which Disney takes existing stories, such as fairy tales, novels, or historical events, and reinterprets them into animated or live-action films. These adaptations often focus on themes of adventure, friendship, and self-discovery, and are presented in a way that appeals to both children and adults. Disney typically adds unique elements, such as original songs and characters, while maintaining the core essence of the original story. Popular examples include "The Lion King," based on Shakespeare's "Hamlet," and "Beauty and the Beast," adapted from the French fairy tale by Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont.
