Disney's Mary Poppins Returns

[Octoberist]

I think it's because it's so early in the game - since they're so release date in sight it's hard to tell when they'll actually start casting.

Hopefully they can come up with a better title than "Mary Poppins Returns." That just sounds, so bland.

Can you say anything about the new &#8220;Mary Poppins&#8221; movie that you&#8217;re producing? It&#8217;ll be another musical based on the sequel novel. There are seven more [books], so it&#8217;s a brand new chapter. It&#8217;s a new movie musical, so all the songs will be new and fantastic. We&#8217;re not remaking the original. That movie is based on just one of the eight books, and this takes place after that. [P.L.] Travers left a whole wealth of wonderful adventures.

Is it true that you&#8217;re looking at Emily Blunt to star? There have been no casting conversations yet.

 

[Silvermoth]

Haha that last question was just someone trying to get their fav casting suggestion considered

No, that will be the tagline in the ads.

"On Nov. 23.....get poppin'.

"Mary Poppins Comes Back".

This is technically the name of the second book.

 

[The Guard]

Indeed.

Emily Blunt in talks to play Mary Poppins in Disney sequel (EXCLUSIVE) http://bit.ly/1Szwu1g

Emily Blunt is in talks to star in Disney’s sequel to “Mary Poppins” with Rob Marshall set to direct.


John DeLuca and Marc Platt will serve as producers on the pic. Sources say Blunt has always been the favorite since all four worked together on “Into the Woods.” With Disney looking to get the film into production soon, the studio recently met with the actress to discuss the idea of playing the magical nanny.

The deal is not yet set in stone due to scheduling. News also recently broke that she is expecting her second child and that may play into her decision.

Insiders confirm the new film will take place in Depression-era London 20 years after the first film and will take story lines from P.L. Travers’ children books focusing on the magical nanny’s continued adventures with the Banks family.
The original film starred Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke in the story of a nanny who came to work for a banker’s unhappy family in pre-World War I England. The film was a huge hit, grossing $100 million at the box office, and earned five Oscars including one for Andrews as best actress.
Disney has reaped rewards recently by turning classic animated pics like “Alice in Wonderland” and “Cinderella” into live action hits, and is now turning its attention to its collection of live-action films.

She doesn't look much like Julie Andrews, but Blunt does have a very nice singing voice. I wouldn't be surprised if they started filming a month or two after she gives birth.

 

[terry78]

Huh, makes sense. She can play grimy and she can play proper and it's believable both ways.

 

[Drizzle]

Not really surprising. It was always going to be between her, Amy Adams or Anne Hathaway. At least they might be going with an actual Brit.
