Poster Revealed for Live-Action Winnie the Pooh Film, Christopher Robin


Disney's live-action remakes have been making a lot of bank in the box office, so you bet they're going to adapt whatever property they have at their disposal. The live-action Winnie the Pooh adaptation, ChristopherRobin is set to come out this year, and Disney has revealed the official poster for the film.

Check it out:

The film stars Ewan McGregor (Star Wars) as the titular Christoper Robin, and he'll be joined by Agent Carter's Hayley Atwell who is possibly playing his love interest. Actors Jim Cummings, Nich Mohammed, Brad Garrett, Chris O'Dowd, Toby Jones, Sophie Okonedo, and Peter Capaldi have also joined the cast as voice actors—no doubt playing Christopher Robin's childhood friends.

Here's the official description for the film:

In the heartwarming live action adventure "Disney's Christopher Robin," the young boy who embarked on countless adventures in the Hundred Acre Wood with his band of spirited and lovable stuffed animals, has grown up and lost his way. Now it is up to his childhood friends to venture into our world and help Christopher Robin remember the loving and playful boy who is still inside.

Christopher Robin is stuck in a job where he is overworked, underpaid and facing an uncertain future. He has a family of his own, but his work has become his life, leaving little time for his wife and daughter, and he has all but forgotten his idyllic childhood spent with a simple-minded, honey-loving stuffed bear and his friends. But when he is reunited with Winnie the Pooh, now tattered and soiled from years of hugs and play, a spark is rekindled, and he is reminded of the endless days of childlike wonder and make believe that defined his youth, when doing nothing could be considered something. Following an unfortunate mishap with Christopher Robin's briefcase, Pooh and the rest of the gang including Piglet, Eeyore and Tigger, step out of the forest and into London to return the crucial possessions…because best friends will always be there for you.

Christopher Robin comes out Aug. 3.
