A dark and beautiful version of the classic tale, with the gorgeous attention to detail the director is known for, was shown in the latest trailer for the film.
At the beginning of the year, we got a glimpse at the film. The film features David Bradley as Geppetto and Gregory Mann as Cricket. The director of The Shape of Water and Pan's Labyrinth is co-directing a movie with another man, and he has described it as a passion project.
He said back in 2020 that he found his perfect partner in the streaming service. We have spent a long time putting together a great cast and crew, and have been blessed by continuous support from Netflix to quietly and carefully soldier on. We all believe that animation is the perfect medium to retell the classic story in a completely new way.
The movie is part of a mini-resurgence of stop- motion. The House was released early this year and there are new Chicken Run and Wallace & Gromit movies in the works.
This holiday season, there will be a new movie on the streaming service.
