Christopher Robin (aka new Winnie the Pooh movie)

[Loden Greatstorm]

Very curious about this movie.

 

[David H.]

Wait, what happened to Alex Ross Perry?

Or is that a different one?

 

[terry78]

Writer of Spotlight is taking over the screenplay duties. Adult Christopher Robin returns to the Hundred Acre Wood after becoming a bland salaryman type. Reunites with Pooh and the gang....hijinx ensue.

So basically Hook?

 

[Octoberist]

Paul Giamtti should play Christopher Robin.

 

[terry78]

What are the odds of the trailer having some weird indie song as it's backdrop.

 

[David H.]

So basically Hook?

Or The Little Prince.

Weird, I thought there was already a movie about an adult Christopher Robin with Domhnall Gleeson but it turned out that was a biopic of A.A. Milne.

I'm going with slowed down indie version of Kenny Loggins' "Return to Pooh Corner"

Ewan McGregor to Star in Disney's 'Christopher Robin' (Exclusive)

"You were the chosen one!"

 

[terry78]

Huh, how about that.

 

[Darkness Falls]

interesting

 

[terry78]

Jim Cummings better be voicing Pooh and Tigger or no deal.

 

[Sawyer]

Tigger will be Zach Galifianakis, deal with it.

 

[Drizzle]

I was wondering myself if they're going to go with the usual suspects who've been voicing the characters for years or if they'll cast more famous voices.

 

[Darkness Falls]

anyone other than jim cummings as pooh would feel like blaspheme
it's not a voice u can just unhear

 

[Quasimod0]

At least Pooh has to be the same voice. I'm fine if they find other voice actors for the rest of the animals.

 

[LoganGambit87]

Tigger will be Zach Galifianakis, deal with it.

[terry78]

So it looks like Cummings is voicing Pooh but everyone else will be more named actors.

 

[Loden Greatstorm]

Trailer in a few days.

 

[Darkness Falls]

Jim Cummings as Winnie the Pooh
Chris O'Dowd as Tigger
Nick Mohammed as Piglet
Brad Garrett as Eeyore
Peter Capaldi as Rabbit
Sophie Okonedo as Kanga
Toby Jones as Owl


Peter Capaldi as rabbit is great casting

 

[Zant]

So this is a live action Pooh movie?

 

[Darkness Falls]

His fur texture is what i expected
Looking forward to the trailer/face reveal

 

[terry78]

That's accurate. I am wondering why they have Brad Garrett doing Eeyore when we have a perfectly good Peter Cullen out there.
