"The production timetable, creative team, and cast will be announced at a later date," Disney said on its website Friday.
The feel-good movie told the story of real-life circus legend P.T. Barnum (Hugh Jackman) and how he made a band of misfits into a family of performers.
The blockbuster film co-starred Zendaya, Michelle Williams, Zac Efron, Rebecca Ferguson and Keala Settle.
The New York Post said the stage version is expected to open in England in early 2026, then head to Broadway after that if all goes well.
