CHRISTOPHER ROBIN (AUGUST 9, 2018, PG)

By Tori Tarallo 

Years laters, all grown up and lacking even the slightest shimmer of imagination, over-worked and pessimistic Christopher Robin (Ewan McGregor) receives a visit from his old friends from the Hundred Acre Wood. Winnie-the-Pooh (Jim Cummings) and friends return to Robin's life and try to restore his once vivid and optimistic imagination which proves to be a challenge now that he's beyond the comforts of childhood, now married with a wife Evelyn (Hayley Atwell) and daughter Madeline (Bronte Carmicheal) and dealing with a very realist boss (Mark Gatiss) at work. 

Directed by Golden Globe nominee Marc Forster of The Kite Runner and World War Z, Christopher Robin lunges into the real-life journey of growing up and the costs it has on imagination. McGregor (Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith) is no stranger when it comes to movies with imagination which will add to the movie. With Cummings' (The Lion King) experience in a plethora of Disney movies, his youthful acting will no doubt help assist in highlighting the magical realism in this movie.
