I guess I would call it more a redemption story arc than a zero to hero story arc. The reason I chose Encanto was because her character started off powerless through no fault of her own and later realises her power that she can use to help her family. So to me that is a zero to hero story arc. But if the protagonist is the cause of the problem then the act of fixing the problem is the character trying to make amends which to me is more align with a redemption story arc.

Because you said you wanted zero to hero I wasn't sure Raya and the Last Dragon counted since Raya starts off as a warrior princess. If that fits what you are looking for then if you haven't seen it Brave would be of a similar vein.

Well the closest I can think of is Moxie and The Duff, unless you are willing to broaden out to things like Ladybird, Ghost World, Real Women have Curves, The Edge of Seventeen, Eighth Grade, We Are The Best, Sunny

If Wolf of Wall Street is one of your examples I would suggest Kick Ass

Otherwise there is Booksmart, Moxie, The Duff, Hunger Games, Mad Max Fury Road, Hidden Figures, Erin Brockovich, Jackie Brown, 9-5, A league of their own, Captain Marvel, Joy, Encanto, And if you don't mind an anthropomorphic cartoon Zootopia

The Golden Compass was recently remade into a TV series that was quite successful so think licensing might be a issue there. I don't know who owns the option for John Carter. The issue comes to the licensing. Not anyone can just remake a book adaption. Studios and production companies basically rent a licensing agreement and it is up to them whether they use it. Sometimes they can be locked away for years till they expire and either someone else buys it or they renew it and lock it away again or use it. It comes down to whether they prioritise making it or not. I suppose if a director comes to the owner of the agreement with a really could pitch perhaps they would let them make it.

Rules are for losers🤪 If you want to make the most expensive work of art ever go for your life. At least he made his money back and then some. How many artists can claim that? If I want to watch characters and plots there are plenty other films and TV to watch.
