It's been said that war puts a man through many, many, changes. But for England's most successful playwright, that's exactly what he was looking for when he created the magical world of Winnie the Pooh. Check out the new U.S. trailer for the upcoming biopic "Goodbye Christopher Robin," starring Domhnall Gleeson as the beloved British children's author A.A. Milne.

Set in the 1920's, the film tells the story where successful comedy playwright A.A. Milne (Gleeson) decided to take his family for a retreat where he could work on a novel that can inspire people to see the essential goodness there is in all of us. During his stay, Milne started to create a magical world based on his son's imaginary friends, including his stuffed animal bear named Winnie-the-Pooh.

Directed by Simon Curtis ("Woman in Gold" and "My Week with Marilyn") and scripted by Frank Cottrell-Boyce (Millions) and Simon Vaughan (War And Peace). The film also co-stars Margot Robbie ("Suicide Squad") as Milne's wife and Christopher Robin's mother Daphne, while Kelly Macdonald ("Boardwalk Empire") plays the family's nanny Olive.

"Goodbye Christopher Robin," is scheduled to open in U.K. Cinemas on September 29th, before arriving in U.S. Theaters on October 13th.
