Disney brings Pinocchio to life with new trailer for live-action movie

August 24, 2022 by Amie Cranswick

With a little over two weeks until Pinocchio arrives on Disney+, Walt Disney Studios has released a trailer, poster and images for director Robert Zemeckis’ live-action retelling of the classic tale; take a look here…

 

Academy Award® winner Robert Zemeckis directs this live action retelling of the beloved tale of a wooden puppet who embarks on a thrilling adventure to become a real boy. Tom Hanks stars as Geppetto, the wood carver who builds and treats Pinocchio (Benjamin Evan Ainsworth) as if he were his own son. Joseph Gordon-Levitt is Jiminy Cricket, who serves as Pinocchio’s guide as well as his “conscience”; Academy Award® nominee Cynthia Erivo is the Blue Fairy; Keegan-Michael Key is “Honest” John; Academy Award® nominee Lorraine Bracco is Sofia the Seagull, a new character, and Luke Evans is The Coachman. Also in the cast are Kyanne Lamaya as Fabiana (and her marionette Sabina), Giuseppe Battiston as Señor Stromboli and Lewin Lloyd as Lampwick.

Pinocchio arrives on Disney+ on September 8th.
