A stunning stop-motion animated teaser trailer for the upcoming Guillermo Del Toro Pinocchio impressed artists and well as the audience.

James Gunn, Rachel Zegler, Thurop Van Orman, and the Entire Internet Are Crushing Over Guillermo Del Toro’s “Pinocchio”, and for All the Good Reasons

“Look Geppetto, I’m a real live boy!” Granted, this was just a hilarious
throwaway line by Chandler teasing Joey on F.R.I.E.N.D.S, but the newly released
trailer of the Guillermo Del Toro Pinocchio is out, and the excitement has
reached new peaks. This darker rendition of the beloved children’s tale from the
brilliant cinematic lens of the Academy award-winning Mexican filmmaker looks
absolutely stunning.


CELEBRITIES LOVE THE GUILLERMO DEL TORO PINOCCHIO TRAILER

On 27th July, Netflix [http://netflix.com] finally unveiled a teaser trailer for
the much-awaited Pinocchio. It follows the teaser clip from January and shows
Geppetto (David Bradley), a lonely woodcutter, creating the puppet boy Pinocchio
(Gregory Mann). The cutting-edge stop-motion animated film shows a lot of
promise from its teaser.



The first look at the story of “The wooden boy with a borrowed soul” has won
many hearts of fans and celebrities alike. Twitteratis have nothing but praise
for the trailer. The Guardians of the Galaxy writer James Gun found the teaser
“delightful.” He, like us, is patiently waiting for the film to come on screen.

and the creator of The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack, commends the
animated flick. He even mentions the Pinocchio writer and his “buddy Pat
McHale,” who was his collaborator on Flapjack.

DEL TORO’S TAKE ON THE 1940 DISNEY CARTOON

For all those wondering what the hype about this children’s story is, let us
give you the 101. Not to be mistaken as Disney’s live-action Pinocchio starring
Tom Hanks, the Guillermo Del Toro Pinocchio is a much grittier adaptation of the
beloved cartoon. The retelling is set in the 1930s in Fascist Italy. The
Pinocchio, in this interpretation, is not the adorable wooden boy that we all
love. He is notorious, a troublemaker, and definitely not an obedient son.

It stars several famous names as the voice for the lead and supporting
characters. Ewan McGregor will voice Sebastian J. Cricket, who acts as the
narrator of the film. Feature alongside will be Gregory Mann as Pinocchio and
David Bradley as Master Geppetto. Even our favorite Mike Wheeler from Stranger
Things [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/stranger-things/]‘ makes an appearance, as
Finn Wolfhard
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-finn-wolfhard-names-only-stranger-things-character-cool-enough-to-wear-air-jordans/]
