Next September, Tom Hanks will transform into Gepetto. Disney has released the first footage of the movie Pinocchio, which will land on the streaming platform at the beginning of the school year. Shot in live motion, the film is adapted from the animated feature-length film released in 1940. Therefore, the 65-year-old actor will play the former designer who wants to bring his wooden puppet to life. She will achieve this thanks to the blue fairy that Cynthia Erivo camped out on this occasion.
At the beginning of this movie, we find the excellent Robert Zemeckis, the director of Forrest Gump, Back to the Future, and even the Pole Express. In addition to these three giant films, the 70-year-old American boxed his last film with Tom Hanks, Alone in the World in 2001. Pinocchio thus represents a beautiful reunion for the two men, 21 years after one of the feature films that made the actor famous.
In this first teaser presented by Disney, we can also see Jiminy Cricket, to whom Joseph Gordon-Levitt lent his voice. Written by the Italian Carlo Collodi at the end of the 19th century, the tale of Pinocchio is now the subject of numerous adaptations. Amazon unveiled another Pinocchio by Matteo Garrone in 2020, with Roberto Benigni as Gepetto, and director Guillermo Del Toro is preparing an adaptation for Netflix.
