Starring Colin Farrell, Michael Keaton, Eva Green, Danny DeVito, Nico Parker, Alan Arkin, Finley Hobbins, Joseph Gatt, DeObia Oparei, Roshan Seth, Sharon Rooney,  and Douglas Reith.

The latest live-action Disney remake is here, and our critic EJ Moreno has a review for you. Check out EJ’s thoughts on Tim Burton’s take on the classic 1941 animated film in the video here or head on over to our YouTube channel to watch (and be sure to subscribe)…

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.
