Pinocchio cast discuss Disney’s live-action remake in new featurette

September 1, 2022 by Amie Cranswick

Walt Disney Studios has released a new featurette for Robert Zemeckis’ live-action adaptation of Pinocchio ahead of its arrival on Disney+ next month, which sees stars Tom Hanks, Luke Evans, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and Cynthia Erivo talking about bringing the magical story to life and their favourite moments from the retelling of the classic tale; watch it 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.
