Disney’s “Christopher Robin” brings the timeless
charm and nostalgia of A.A. Milne’s stories and characters to the big screen in
an imaginative tale about the joy and purity of youth. Speaking to the child in
all of us, the film is a gentle reminder to let some of those qualities infuse
our adult lives.
A heartwarming live-action adventure, “Christopher
Robin” is directed by Golden Globe® nominee Marc Forster and stars Golden
Globe® winner and Emmy® nominee Ewan McGregor as Christopher Robin; Golden
Globe nominee Hayley Atwell as his wife, Evelyn; Bronte Carmichael as his
daughter, Madeline; and Emmy winner Mark Gatiss as Giles Winslow, Robin’s boss.
The film also features the voices of Jim Cummings as Winnie the Pooh and
Tigger, three-time Emmy winner Brad Garrett as Eeyore, Golden Globe nominee
Toby Jones as Owl, Nick Mohammed as Piglet, Oscar® winner Peter Capaldi as
Rabbit and Oscar nominee and Tony Award® winner Sophie Okonedo as Kanga.
Once a working script was in place, Marc Forster was thrilled to direct the film.
The acclaimed director known for his eclectic range of films—including “Finding
Neverland,” “Quantum of Solace” and “The Kite Runner”—grew up loving Disney
live-action films and was immediately drawn to the story. It had a sense of
magic realism, and he believed it had the potential to become an artistic,
emotional, funny and timeless film.
“When you are able to make people laugh and cry in
the same movie and you are able to tell the story with integrity and ground it
in reality and have the magic realism on top of it, it lifts your spirits and
connects you with the people you love,” says Forster.
And this is a story Forster believes has never
been more relevant. “I think it’s something we desperately need in the world,”
he says. “We could all use a little bit of Pooh’s heart and wisdom right now.”
Disney's Christopher Robin releases on 10th
August 2018 in India.
