Whether you love it or hate it a sequel to Mary Poppins is coming, in what could be the most daring sequel attempt in cinematic history. Mary Poppins Returns features an all star cast, an award winning director, and a musical team that most movies dream to work with. Thanks to Entertainment Weekly we now have our first look at the film. Check out the photos below…
Set 25 years after the 1964 film, it will feature Mary Poppins, the former nanny of Jane and Michael Banks, re-visiting them after a family tragedy.
The film stars Emily Blunt, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Ben Whishaw, Emily Mortimer, Meryl Streep, Angela Lansbury, Colin Firth, Pixie Davies, Dick Van Dyke, Julie Walters and is directed by Academy Award Winner (Chicago) Rob Marshall.
Mary Poppins Returns is scheduled for release on December 25, 2018, giving it one of the longest gaps between film sequels in history.
