Deron GenerallyThe first trailer for the upcoming live action Winnie the Pooh film Christopher Robin tugged at the heartstrings of many fans of the Disney version of the character, especially when Jim Cummings spoke in the voice.
Today, actress Hayley Atwell, who stars in the upcoming film as Christopher Robin’s wife Evelyn shared the theatrical poster for the film to her Instagram account. In it, we get to see some of the characters that we know and love including Pooh, Tigger, Piglet and Eeyore and how they will look in the live action film.
Christopher Robin is stuck in a job where he is overworked, underpaid and facing an uncertain future. He has a family of his own, but his work has become his life, leaving little time for his wife and daughter, and he has all but forgotten his idyllic childhood spent with a simple-minded, honey-loving stuffed bear and his friends. But when he is reunited with Winnie the Pooh, now tattered and soiled from years of hugs and play, a spark is rekindled, and he is reminded of the endless days of childlike wonder and make believe that defined his youth, when doing nothing could be considered something. Following an unfortunate mishap with Christopher Robin’s briefcase, Pooh and the rest of the gang including Piglet, Eeyore and Tigger, step out of the forest and into London to return the crucial possessions…because best friends will always be there for you.
Christopher Robin stars Ewan McGregor, Hayley Atwell, Bronte Carmichael, Mark Gatiss, Jim Cummings, Chris O’Dowd, Brad Garrett, Toby Jones, Nick Mohammed, Peter Capaldi and Sophie Okonedo.
Christopher Robin will open in theaters August 3rd.
