Since 2016, Disney repurchased the film rights for Prydain Chronicles, and no further announcement was made. probably shelved.
Considering....
Disney is doing the stand outs, the well knowns first: the crown jewels of the Disney animated feature canon for movie theaters and Disney+. However, some of the lesser, obscure and cult films of Disney's animated feature canon don't seem to make it to get the treatment.

Here a storyboard pitch reel for a live action Prydain film by Jared Crossley and Justin Kunz pitched to Disney.
cool.
The animated film may be a cult classic, there are those who think The Black Cauldron (1985) improved over the books, others say it's not a good representation of the books.
As for me, I'm admittedly torn between the two.
Even though the story was rushed, I love the 1985 animated film still has a place in my heart since the early 2000's when my dad first rented that movie from Blockbuster video.
I would love to see more movie adaptations of the books, if true to the books and done right.
