Disney’s New ‘Dumbo’ posters highlights the humans and one nervous elephant
Disney has released a batch of character posters showing off the cast of Tim Burton‘s live-action Dumbo movie. The bright colors and themes revealed in the trailer are clearly present here in these images.
Fans get a great look at the main cast: Danny DeVito, who plays circus owner Max Medici, is wearing an above-average sized top hat; Colin Farrell is the former circus star Holt Farrier; Eva Green has a feel of The Greatest Showman and Michael Keaton, looking like the Big Bad from a hypothetical Gotham season.
Holt, a widowed father of two kids, played by newcomers Nico Parker and Finley Hobbins, rejoins a troupe led by Medici (DeVito). Holt becomes the carer of a newborn elephant who is the laughing stock of the circus because of his enormous ears.
When word gets out that Dumbo can fly, V.A. Vandevere (Keaton) and Colette Marchant (Eva Green) take it upon themselves to make the little elephant a star/exploit him.
Check out the posters below. Dumbo flies into theaters on March 29.
Here’s the official synopsis for Tim Burton’s Dumbo:
From Disney and visionary director Tim Burton, “Dumbo” expands on the beloved classic story where differences are celebrated, family is cherished and dreams take flight.Featured characters include Dumbo, a sweet newborn elephant with oversized ears; Holt Farrier (Colin Farrell), a former circus star charged with caring for an elephant who can fly; Max Medici (Danny DeVito), the owner of a struggling circus who hopes Dumbo will bring in the crowds; V.A. Vandevere (Michael Keaton), an entrepreneur who sets his sights on Medici’s circus and its flying elephant; and Colette Marchant (Eva Green), an accomplished aerialist who’s cast to fly alongside Dumbo in a state-of-the-art amusement park called Dreamland.
