Disney Movie News
Mary Poppins Returns (set to premier December 25, 2018) is in negations to add Colin Firth to the cast as President of Fidelity Fiduciary Bank. Other big names slated to appear in the film include: Emily Blunt, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Meryl Streep, Ben Whishaw, and Emily Mortimer.
Here is a synopsis of Mary Poppins Returns from slashfilm.com:
"Disney’s original 1964 Mary Poppins was based on the first of P.L. Travers’ eight books about the magical nanny. Mary Poppins Returnsis a sequel based on the other installments. The story picks up about two decades after the original, in Depression-era London. Jane and Michael Banks are all grown up, and Michael has three children of his own. But when tragedy strikes, the Banks family is revisited by Mary Poppins, who helps them rediscover joy and adventure in their lives."
I can't believe we have to wait two more years to see what is sure to be a great addition to the Mary Poppins story.
