Check out this extended look at MARY POPPINS RETURNS!
I take back what I said before about the roles feeling forced. After seeing this trailer, I now realize that with this movie they are able to do stuff with MARY POPPINS that they just couldn't back when the original came out. The whimsey level is high, with the fun level right behind it.
Dick Van Dyke is still dancing and that’s rather impressive considering that he did the last movie over 50 years ago, and is now pushing the age of 92! However, he is obviously not reprising his role as Bert as a younger man has replaced him. In the original, Van Dyke also filled the role of Mr. Dawes Senior, and in the sequel he is Mr. Dawes Junior!
Unfortunately, Julie Andrews will not be making an appearance in MARY POPPINS RETURNS.
This movie is coming out soon! Catch it December 19th!
