Disney Disney Disney - Into the Woods!

Disney are pulling it out of the bag and will be releasing their brand new muscial movie "Into the Woods. Maybe besides "Enchanted" I think this will be the first non-animated musical film Disney has brought out. Into the Woods is a modern twist on the Brothers Grimm fairy tales that follows the classic tales of Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, and Rapunzel, all tied together by an original story involving a baker and his wife, their wish to start a family and being  faced with the witch who puts a curse on them. And it has been made into a musical which i'm sure will feature some powerful, and catchy songs with Disney's magical touch and twist on them. It will be released at Christmas and looks to be the perfect family flick for all the family for the holiday period!

The trailer was released not too long ago and shows us an all star cast, from the likes of Emily Blunt, Anna Kendrick, Chris Pine, Johnny Depp, Meryl Streep, James Cordon and many more new young talent making an appearance on the big screen. Stars such as Anna Kendrick has been in Pitch Perfect and Meryl Streep in Mama Mia, obviously this is a completely different musical to those but it will be interesting to see how they perform and sing in this particular movie. What i'm more interested in, is if Chris Pine has any songs, that would definitely be fun to watch! But how can we forget the legend that is Johnny Depp, as we have seen him perform and sing in "Sweeny Todd". And he was amazing and that is in fact one of my favourite films, and "Into the Woods" style looks quite similar to "Sweeny Todd" so I have high expectations for Johnny Depp but i'm sure he will be amazing no matter what! But overall from the trailer, each character looks interesting in their own way and I'm very excited to watch them all and their stories! 

It will be released on Christmas day and I definitely will be going to watch it at some point between Christmas and the New Year. Disney really are spoiling us with films such as this one, Cinderella (which I have wrote a post on if your interested, its just below this one) and Maleficent that was released in the summer and I'm sure there are plenty more to come. 

Thankyou for reading this quick little post and I have left the "Into the Woods" character posters below because they are just beautiful and make me even more excited for this movie!


Bye! :-)
