Enchanting Trailer for PETER PAN and ALICE IN WONDERLAND Tale COME AWAY Starring Angelina Jolie and David Oyelowo
A new trailer has been released for the film Come Away, which is described as a prequel to the classic tales Peter Pan and Alice In Wonderland. The film stars Angelina Jolie (Girl, Interrupted, Wanted, Changeling) and David Oyelowo (Selma, Nightingale) as Rose and Jack Littleton, parents to Peter (Jordan A. Nash) and Alice (Keira Chansa), to whom they tell fanciful stories in an effort to escape from their worries and troubles.
They are joined in the cast by Michael Caine, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Clarke Peters, and Derek Jacobi. The film is based on the classic novels and was written by Marissa Kate Goodhill and directed by Brenda Chapman, who wrote and directed Brave, and worked on several other Disney films as well.
Here’s the full synopsis:
In this imaginative origin story of two of the most beloved characters in literature – Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland – eight-year-old Alice (Keira Chansa), her mischievous brother Peter (Jordan A. Nash) and their brilliant older sibling David (Reece Yates) let their imaginations run wild one blissful summer in the English countryside. Encouraged by their parents Jack and Rose (David Oyelowo and Angelina Jolie), the kids’ make-believe tea parties, sword fights and pirate ship adventures come to an abrupt end when tragedy strikes. Peter, eager to prove himself a hero to his grief-stricken and financially-struggling parents, journeys with Alice to London, where they try to sell a treasured heirloom to the sinister pawnshop owner known as C.J. (David Gyasi). Returning home, Alice seeks temporary refuge in a wondrous rabbit hole while Peter permanently escapes reality by entering a magical realm as leader of the “Lost Boys.”
This looks like a beautifully made film with a good story and great acting. I can’t wait to watch this movie with my family. Check out the trailer below, and watch Come Away On Demand on November 13th.
