John Barrowman Would Love To Be In A Disney Live-Action Remake

Arrow John Barrowman Malcolm Merlyn Arrowverse

John Barrowman has played some pretty memorable characters in the sci-fi world. Fromย Doctor Who, where he played Captain Jack Harkness, to his appearances across The CW‘s DCTV shows, beginning on Arrow and making his way toย Legends of Tomorrow as Malcolm Merlyn.

So what would John Barrowman like to tackle next? A Disney live-action movie, of course! Speaking at the Dallas Fan Expo this weekend, Barrowman said heโ€™d love to be a part of a movie like Beauty and the Beast.

โ€œIโ€™d love to do a Disney live action movie. I really would. Itโ€™s just a question of what ones theyโ€™re going to do now because of the massive success theyโ€™ve had with Beauty and the Beast, which I thought was awesome. I sat like a kid in a candy store watching it.โ€

Asked which character John Barrowman would like to play, he isnโ€™t particularly very picky and would be into playing any character so long as he gets to be a part of the Disney magic.

โ€œI donโ€™t know [which character I would want to play]. I donโ€™t have an answer to that, but itโ€™s always been a dream of mine to be in a Disney film. And whether itโ€™s a voice, or if it was Disney live action, so because of that movie, I think thereโ€™s going to be plenty of Disney live action movies coming out, maybe with animated animals, all that sort of stuff. I donโ€™t know. But fingers crossed.โ€

John Barrowman will next be seen in this Tuesdayโ€™s season finale of Legends of Tomorrow, where heโ€™s a part of the Legion of Doom.ย Legends will air at a special time on Tuesday at 8/7c instead of 9/8c on The CW.
