Check Out A Second Full Length Trailer And A New Poster For Disney And Steven Spielberg's Adaptation Of THE BFG
A brand new full length trailer and a very nice poster for Steven Spielberg's adaptation of Roald Dahl’s classic children's tale, The BFG, have been released online. Check 'em out after the jump...
Following its première at the Cannes Film Festival, the first reactions to Steven Spielberg's The BFG have been surprisingly mixed. Though quite a few reviews praise many elements of the adaptation, the general consensus seems to be that it's a tad disappointing.
Audiences will get to decide for themselves when the movie hits theaters in July, but in the meantime you can heck out a new trailer and poster below.
The BFG (Mark Rylance), while a giant himself, is a Big Friendly Giant and nothing like the other inhabitants of Giant Country. Standing 24-feet tall with enormous ears and a keen sense of smell, he is endearingly dim-witted and keeps to himself for the most part. Giants like Bloodbottler (Bill Hader) and Fleshlumpeater (Jemaine Clement) on the other hand, are twice as big and at least twice as scary and have been known to eat humans, while the BFG prefers Snozzcumber and Frobscottle.
Upon her arrival in Giant Country, Sophie, a precocious 10-year-old girl from London, is initially frightened of the mysterious giant who has brought her to his cave, but soon comes to realize that the BFG is actually quite gentle and charming, and, having never met a giant before, has many questions. The BFG brings Sophie to Dream Country where he collects dreams and sends them to children, teaching her all about the magic and mystery of dreams.
The BFG opens in U.S. theaters on July 1, 2016, the year that marks the 100th anniversary of Dahl’s birth.
