May 31, 2022 by Matt Rodgers

“When You Wish Upon a Star” not only do Disney announce that their Disney+ Day will be on September 8th this year, but they also reveal that the celebrations will coincide with the release of Robert Zemeckis’ live-action adaptation of the classic animated movie Pinocchio.

Starring Tom Hanks as Geppetto, Benjamin Evan Ainsworth as Pinocchio, Cynthia Erivo as the Blue Fairy, Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Jiminy Cricket, Keegan-Michael Key as ‘Honest’ John, Lorraine Bracco as Sofia the Seagull and Luke Evans as The Coachman, you can check out the teaser trailer below…

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 will stream on September 8th 2022 exclusively on Disney+.
