Here's the First Teaser Trailer for Tim Burton's 'Dumbo'
'Dumbo' stars previously Tim Burton universe legends Michael Keaton and Danny DeVito, both of whom worked on 'Batman Returns.' Eva Green and Colin Farrell also star.
Tim Burton, obviously, is definitely the right person for the job when it comes to reviving Disney's Dumbo vibes.
Wednesday, Disney dropped off the first teaser trailer for Burton's live-action update of their 1941 elephant classic. Burton directs from a script by Ehren Kruger (Ghost in the Shell). Colin Farrell, Michael Keaton, Eva Green, Danny DeVito, Alan Arkin, and Nico Parker lead the cast. As fellow Burton aficionados will note, this doesn't mark the first time we've seen Keaton and DeVito in a Burton production, as the two previously gave still unmatched performances as Batman and Penguin in Batman Returns.
Technically, Burton’'s film picks up where the 1941 original left off. "The original ends with the elephant flying," DeVito said previously. "This one begins with that and goes even further."
Shooting the new film also gave the director the chance to work on the biggest set he's ever been on in his life. "Literally, a chill went up the back of my neck," he toldEntertainment Weekly Wednesday.
Dumbo hits theaters in March. Below, catch the official synopsis:
