The Disney blockbuster has a strange lineage.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Disney found surprising source material for a blockbuster film with 2010’s The Sorcerer’s Apprentice. The film has a strange pedigree, beginning with the Nicolas Cage film Next. Cage explains that the movie, in which he plays a Las Vegas magician, gave him the urge to play a real wizard on screen.
Disney, who were still looking to recapture the success of Pirates of the Caribbean, ran with Cage and Garner’s idea. The film became The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, a fantasy blockbuster in which a college student is inducted into a world of ancient sorcerers, taught by the thousand-year-old Balthazar Blake . Unfortunately for the studio, The Sorcerer’s Apprentice became one of Disney’s biggest box office bombs.
Disney's The Sorcerer's Apprentice Connects To Mickey Mouse's Role In Fantasia Fantasia features numerous animated segments set to pieces of classical music. The most well-known segment, which features in most of the film’s publicity, is Fantasia’s “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice”. In the short, Mickey Mouse plays the titular apprentice, who steals his master’s magical hat and uses it to animate a broom which he commands to complete his chores.
In the film, the titular apprentice once again attempts to have animated cleaning implements fulfill his chores, only for them to begin flooding the room with water. The Sorcerer's Apprentice even recreates the iconic silhouetted image of the apprentice’s shadow bringing down his axe. Like the Fantasia segment, the havoc ends when the apprentice’s master, Nicolas Cage’s Balthazar Blake, returns.
Where The Sorcerer's Apprentice Story Originated From The 2010 film and its Fantasia precursor originate with the 1797 ballad “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” by famed German poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. The events of the poem are largely the same as in Fantasia’s recreation; a young apprentice loses control of an enchanted broom, and accidentally multiplies it by chopping it up with an axe, only to be saved by his returning master.
