Dumbo takes flight in new poster for live-action Disney movie

November 14, 2018 by Amie Cranswick

In anticipation of a new trailer later tonight, Walt Disney Pictures has released a new poster for the Tim Burton-directed live-action remake of the beloved animated classic Dumbo which sees the titular elephant taking flight.

Disney’s new live-action feature film “Dumbo” introduces Holt Farrier (Colin Farrell), a former circus star who finds his life turned upside down when he returns from the war. Circus owner Max Medici (Danny DeVito) enlists Holt to care for a newborn elephant whose oversized ears make him a laughingstock in an already struggling circus. But when Holt’s children (Nico Parker and Finley Hobbins) discover that Dumbo can fly, persuasive entrepreneur V.A. Vandevere (Michael Keaton) and an aerial artist named Colette Marchant (Eva Green) swoop in to make the peculiar pachyderm a star.

Dumbo is set for release on March 29th 2019 and features a cast that includes Colin Farrell (The Lobster), Michael Keaton (Beetlejuice), Danny DeVito (Batman Returns), Eva Green (Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children), Joseph Gatt (Z Nation), DeObia Oparei (Game of Thrones), Roshan Seth (Gandhi), Sharon Rooney (My Mad Fat Diary), Alan Arkin (Edward Scissorhands) and Douglas Reith (Downton Abbey), as well as newcomers Nico Parker and Finley Hobbins.
