Disney+ has released an exclusive first look image for its upcoming live-action retelling of 'Pinocchio,' directed by Academy Award winner Robert Zemeckis. The film stars Tom Hanks as Geppetto, who builds and treats Pinocchio (played by Benjamin Evan Ainsworth) like his own son. Other cast members include Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Jiminy Cricket, Cynthia Erivo as the Blue Fairy, Keegan-Michael Key as Honest John, Lorraine Bracco as Sofia the Seagull, and Luke Evans as The Coachman.

The story follows Pinocchio's journey to become a real boy after being created by Geppetto. Along the way, he must face various challenges and lessons that test his character. Academy Award nominee Cynthia Erivo will play the Blue Fairy in this live-action retelling of the classic tale about a wooden puppet who embarks on an adventure to become human.

The movie is set for release exclusively on Disney+ later this September 2022, offering fans another chance to experience one of their favorite childhood stories brought back to life with modern twists and new actors.
