Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio: Trailer, Release Date, Cast
Netflix is reimagining the traditional story of Pinocchio for a forthcoming stop-motion musical directed by Oscar-winning director Guillermo del Toro. The newest teaser trailer, launched on July 27, highlights the narration from Ewan McGregor as Sebastian J. Cricket. In the voiceover, he warns that you just may suppose you realize this story, however “you do not.”
Netflix launched the primary teaser on Jan. 24, which gave viewers their preliminary glimpse on the stop-motion animation movie. Netflix’s “Pinocchio” — which del Toro has been engaged on for over a decade — relies on the unique 1883 Italian story written by Carlo Collodi, which Disney revamped in 1940 with its personal animated film. In 2008, del Toro introduced his plans to develop a stop-motion animated film primarily based on Collodi’s model, however over time, he struggled to seek out funding for it and was pressured to modify studios a number of occasions.
Now, Netflix says del Toro has reinvented “Collodi’s traditional story of the wood marionette who’s magically delivered to life as a way to mend the center of a grieving woodcarver named Geppetto. This whimsical, stop-motion musical directed by Guillermo del Toro and Mark Gustafson follows the mischievous and disobedient adventures of Pinocchio in his pursuit of a spot on this planet.”
Read on for all the things we learn about del Toro’s “Pinocchio” to date, together with the forged and launch date.
del Toro’s “Pinocchio” will premiere on Netflix on Dec. 9.
