I can picture Tom Hanks as Geppetto very clearly in my mind’s eye, with the white hair and the mustache, the tiny glasses and the rosy cheeks. He’s perfect for the role.

Cumming is a good choice for Honest John. I don't know Graham, so can't say about him.

Stephen Graham is Scrum from Pirates of the Caribbean On Stranger Tides and Pirates of the Caribbean Dead Men Tell No Tales. He also played Fulvio, who go stuck in Ali Babba in the Inkheart movie and will be in Venom Let There Be Carnage :)

Like Cumming, he is perfect casting as he looks the part translated into Live Action: https://boards.fireden.net/co/thread/118723088/

I really the... hype promo? Disney shared. I mean, I guess it just reminds me of Disney’s original Pinocchio which is why I liked it but oh well. I think it could be entertaining.

It's surprising Pinocchio has the same design as the animated one. I wonder if that was just for the concept art or if it will look like that in the finished film too. I'm not sure such a cartoony design can work in a live-action world.

Ah, the teaser gave me chills. :) I'm SHOCKED we got any footage at all. The concept art is gorgeous! I am mixed about Pinocchio looking the same. Relieved, but what is the point? :? :? :?

I don't think any if what we have seen is meant to be concept art.

Anyway, I liked the trailer. Cool vibes. I didn't really like the logo, though.

Wasn`t it only concept art? Though I wouldn`t mind if he actually looked like that in the movie.

Glen Ballard, huh? The guy who`s behind Alanis Morissette`s famous Jagged Little Pill? An interesting choice.
