Disney's Dumbo — Official Trailer

added: Wed, Nov 14th '18

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls! Step right up and witness a flying circus elephant, named Dumbo!

Check out the new official trailer for Disney's upcoming live-action "Dumbo" movie, which hails from visionary director Tim Burton (Alice in Wonderland, Big Fish, Beetlejuice, Batman, etc.).

Boasting an all-star cast that includes the likes of Colin Farrell, Danny DeVito, Eva Green, Alan Arkin, and Michael Keaton, the fantasy adventure film is inspired by Disney's 1941 animated classic, which itself was adapted from the children's novel by Helen Aberson and Harold Pearl.

Here, Farrell plays an one-armed circus employee who, along with his young children (played by newcomers Nico Parker and Finley Hobbins), is tasked with looking after a newborn elephant, called Dumbo. When they discover Dumbo has a special gift -- he can use his huge floppy ears to fly through the air, the circus owner (DeVito) immediately makes him the main attraction. But as Dumbo becomes the talk of the town, Farrell's character and his children secretly plot to free Dumbo, so he can reunite with his mother, who has been shipped off to a different town.

Written by "Transformers" scribe Ehren Kruger and featuring music by Burton's long-time composer Danny Elman, "Dumbo" is coming to theaters March 29, 2019.

synopsis:
From Disney and visionary director Tim Burton, the all-new grand live-action adventure “Dumbo” expands on the beloved classic story where differences are celebrated, family is cherished and dreams take flight.

Circus owner Max Medici (Danny DeVito) enlists former star Holt Farrier (Colin Farrell) and his children Milly (Nico Parker) and Joe (Finley Hobbins) to care for a newborn elephant whose oversized ears make him a laughingstock in an already struggling circus. But when they discover that Dumbo can fly, the circus makes an incredible comeback, attracting persuasive entrepreneur V.A. Vandevere (Michael Keaton), who recruits the peculiar pachyderm for his newest, larger-than-life entertainment venture, Dreamland.

Dumbo soars to new heights alongside a charming and spectacular aerial artist, Colette Marchant (Eva Green), until Holt learns that beneath its shiny veneer, Dreamland is full of dark secrets.
