For those unfamiliar, the upcoming version of Pinocchio was directed by Academy Award Winner Robert Zemeckis and revisits the beloved tale of a wooden pupped that embarks on a thrilling adventure to become a real boy. In the film, Hanks takes on the roll of Geppetto, the wood carver who builds and treats Pinocchio (voiced by Benjamin Evan Ainsworth) like a son.
Rounding out the cast are Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Jiminy Cricket, Cynthia Erivo as the Blue Fiary, Keegan-Michael Key as “Honest” John, Lorraine Bracco as Sofia the Seagull and Luke Evans as The Coachman. Also in the cast are Kyanne Lamaya as Fabiana and Jaquita Ta’Le as her marionette Sabrina. Also be on the lookout for Giuseppe Battiston as Stromboil and Lewin Lloyd as Lampwich.
Pinocchio is based on a screenplay by Robert Zemeckis & Chris Weitz.
