NEW MOVIE: Disney +’s FLORA & ULYSSES Filming in Vancouver This Summer

Flora & Ulysses

Disney +’s adaption of the Newberry Award-winning children’s book Flora & Ulysses is filming in Vancouver this summer.

Flora & Ulysses tells the story of a 10-year-old Flora, an avid comic book fan, who saves a squirrel she names Ulysses only to have its unique superhero powers wreak havoc in a series of humorous and antic-filled adventures that ultimately change Flora’s life forever.

Working title: Pushpin.

Filming dates: June 23rd to August 22nd.

Cast:

It begins, as the best superhero stories do, with a tragic accident that has unexpected consequences. The squirrel never saw the vacuum cleaner coming, but self-described cynic Flora Belle Buckman, who has read every issue of the comic book Terrible Things Can Happen to You!, is the just the right person to step in and save him. What neither can predict is that Ulysses (the squirrel) has been born anew, with powers of strength, flight, and misspelled poetry—and that Flora will be changed too, as she discovers the possibility of hope and the promise of a capacious heart.

Writer: Brad Copeland

Director: Lena Khan.
