Here’s a bit more about it.
Synopsis: Directed by Brenda Chapman, the Oscar™-winning director and co-writer of Disney Pixar’s Brave and written by Kate Goodhill, COME AWAY is a whimsical and inspiring British made live-action fairy-tale. Starring David Oyelowo (Selma), Anna Chancellor (Four Weddings and a Funeral), Gugu Mbatha-Raw (Belle), Reece Yates (Les Miserables), Angelina Jolie (Maleficent), Michael Caine (The Dark Knight), and newcomers Keira Chansa and Jordan A. Nash (Aladdin), the film follows the adventures of siblings Alice and Peter who transform into Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland in a bid to help their parents – played by Oyelowo and Jolie – overcome the tragedy of losing their eldest son. Having received its world premiere earlier this year at Sundance Film Festival, the film has been described as “terrific” and “standout” by The Times, COME AWAY is a unique and ingeniously conceived prequel to two of the world’s most beloved and enduring pieces of children’s literature.
Looking at some reviews, the word is fairly good. Can’t wait to check it out. Here’s the promo which debuted a couple of days ago.
