Dumbo is flying back into theaters next year, March 2019. The first trailer for the new movie was released today. Tim Burton recreates the classic Disney film from 1941 in a tale of family, loss, a struggling circus and a unique elephant that at first discomforts people but in the end brings hope and inspiration to those he meets.
The film stars Colin Farrell as Holt Farrier, a former horse showman who returns from a war as a widower to his two children and a circus that is struggling to survive. The circus owner, Max Medici, portrayed by Danny DeVito, buys a pregnant elephant which leads to Dumbo flying into their lives and as Farrell told in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, “awakens everybody to their better selves.”
Take a look at the first trailer of the remake of the beloved 1941 Disney classic!
