The new trailer for Disney’s live-action Pinocchio, premiering Thursday, September 8, as part of Disney+ Day, was released today. Academy Award® winner Robert Zemeckis directs this 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 plays Jiminy Cricket, who serves as Pinocchio’s guide as well as his “conscience”; Academy Award nominee Cynthia Erivo plays the Blue Fairy; Keegan-Michael Key plays “Honest” John; Academy Award nominee Lorraine Bracco plays Sofia the Seagull, a new character; and Luke Evans plays The Coachman. Also in the cast are Kyanne Lamaya, playing Fabiana, and Jaquita Ta’Le, playing her marionette, Sabina; Giuseppe Battiston, playing Stromboli; and Lewin Lloyd, playing Lampwick.
In addition to beloved songs from the original animated classic, including “When You Wish Upon a Star” performed by Erivo, the film features new original songs composed by Oscar® nominees Alan Silvestri and Glen Ballard. The soundtrack from Walt Disney Records will be available Thursday, September 8, and is available for Pre-Save/Pre-Add.
