Beatrix Potter’s tales have charmed people around the world for decades – but you have to wonder what she would think of this new take on her classic character Peter Rabbit. The new movie mixes live action and CGI, with a modern approach for the mischievous bunny, who here has the voice of James Corden.
Here’s the synopsis: ‘Peter Rabbit, the mischievous and adventurous hero who has captivated generations of readers, now takes on the starring role of his own irreverent, contemporary comedy with attitude. In the film, Peter’s feud with Mr. McGregor (Domhnall Gleeson) escalates to greater heights than ever before as they rival for the affections of the warm-hearted animal lover who lives next door (Rose Byrne). James Corden voices the character of Peter with playful spirit and wild charm, with Margot Robbie, Elizabeth Debicki, and Daisy Ridley performing the voice roles of the triplets, Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cottontail.’
The movie will hit cinemas Easter 2018. Take a look at the trailer below. [Read more…]
