Emily Blunt is Mary Poppins and Joel Dawson is Georgie Banks in Disney’s MARY POPPINS RETURNS, a sequel to the 1964 MARY POPPINS, which takes audiences on an entirely new adventure with the practically perfect nanny and the Banks family.
She’s practically perfect, in every way – and back to help out with the Banks kids again – all of them. Today we get a first look at the new Mary Poppins Returns trailer and we can’t be any more thrilled. Mary Poppins is the nanny we all had or dreamed we did because we watched the movie over and over again. Her magical ways and showing up just when the family needs it is simply the best.
With the warm feelings we all have for the original, the sequel has already captured our hearts even though we’ve only seen little snippets from the trailer. We’re already enchanted and we will admit we even got teary eyed watching the new trailer.
Check out the trailer, the final poster and some screen shots from the movie below – we can’t wait to head back to Cherry Tree Lane this holiday season!
