Guillermo del Toro's 'Pinocchio' trailer: Watch | Mashable.

Guillermo del Toro's 'Pinocchio' trailer promises a twist on the puppet classic

The other 'Pinocchio' is coming.

"It's a story you may think you know," says the woodcarver Geppetto in the new teaser trailer for Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio, "but you don't."

The new stop-motion animation film from the acclaimed director is slated to arrive on Netflix this December, months after Disney's live-action Pinocchio take drops on their streaming service Disney+. Hence why this trailer may want to proclaim its uniqueness — they're competing with Tom Hanks's Geppetto, after all.

Despite the dueling Pinocchios, this one is sure to deliver. Not only is del Toro involved, but so are A-listers Ewan McGregor and Tilda Swinton, among others. Plus, the trailer gives the audience a sneak-peek into the fantastical animation that's sure to fit with the classic tale.

There's no set release date yet, but Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio will be on Netflix sometime in December.

  1. I love these character designs!! Pinocchio actually looks like he's been carved out of wood, and the Blue Fairy looks both benevolent and terrifying, like an angel almost. The "borrowed soul" bit also hints at a deeper story. Can't wait to see this!

    1. I think he's the reincarnation of Geppetto's biological son, Carlo.

  2. Guillermo Del Toro could make anything and I would happily watch it. He is a master at any genre

  3. Having Geppetto create Pinoc due to his grief and unable to move on makes so much sense I'm surprised other adaptations haven't done it before.

    The stop-motion looks beautiful! Up there with Laika with the detail and movements.

    Been excited for his film since it was announced and I can't wait for it to come out

  14. I haven't felt anything from a children's movie trailer in a long time, and I'm glad this is more accessible to all kids (& adults) via streaming. The story of Pinocchio has always been about a parent, and a child trying to accomplish their dreams. Parenthood isn't easy, even if it's for a wooden puppet. Universal things these old stories used to say in very dark, realistic ways.

    I can't wait.

  16. When I heard Del Toro was directing a Pinocchio movie, I thought, “That’s one of maybe three directors I trust to do it.” But stop-motion never crossed my mind.
    This looks very promising.

  23. The Matteo Garrone version in Italian from 2019 was my favorite so far and truest to the original novel. I doubt this one will surpass that, but I'll watch and find out.

  28. Guillermo Del Toro really is a master, loved his Tales of Arcadia series and from the looks of this trailer this looks awesome too. Obviously doesn’t come close to the 1940’s Pinocchio but still very good

    ReplyDelete
  56. Yeah im definitely seeing this as del toro best the animation the feel of it. This teaser really encapsulates the main theme its grieving lost and identity but it also delves in the lovebetween father and son. Its going to be a beautiful ride indeed

    ReplyDelete
  57. This is what we need more of, if you're going to retell a classic tale, do it with a passion for the craft of storytelling and filmmaking, not money-harvesting like the Disney live action stuff.

    Lotta people seem to be clamouring for Netflix to fail at the moment, but as long as they keep helping to get stuff like this made I'll support them.
