Oh, come on. Why couldn't Jim voice both Pooh and Tigger? He's done it loads of times before.disneyprincess11 wrote:I.......
Jim Cummings, the current voice of Winnie the Pooh, will continue to voice the role he has held for decades. Everybody Loves Raymond‘s Brad Garrett will take on the role of Eeyore. Alan Tudyk, who brought K-2SO in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, will be voicing Tigger.

Sounds like it will be similar to the live-action Smurfs movie.In the heartwarming live-action adventure Disney's Christopher Robin, the young boy who loved embarking on adventures in the Hundred Acre Wood with a band of spirited and lovable stuffed animals, has grown up and lost his way.

It would have been better if Christopher Robin traveled to the 100 Acre Wood again as an adult instead of the stuffed animals coming to life in the real world.thats the first thing that I thought of... Smurfs, the Chipmunk films and that atrocious new Peter Rabbit movie, where cute CGI critters wreak havoc on an unsuspecting adult but at the end teach him a lesson about life.Sotiris wrote:D82 wrote:Sounds like it will be similar to the live-action Smurfs movie.
well thank goodness, though this move is already staring to sound questionable anyway...No Tigger, but Dustin Hoffman and Martin Short have turned down the role.
oh geez, him too?especially now that I've learned some unsavory details about lead Ewan McGregor.
Peter Rabbit looks absolutely awful. The funny thing is that I remember that Beatrix Potter refused to give the rights over to Disney for a film adaptation because she thought they would butcher the character. That ended up happening anyway though.unprincess wrote:thats the first thing that I thought of...

He hasn't had a sexual harassment or sexual assault scandal. He has been identified as a cheating dirtbag though who lost a lot of fans especially after his Golden Globes speech where he thanked both his wife and his new paramour. The Star Wars prequels will be very difficult to stomach now with him onscreen, although I know with or without him, most people already share that sentiment.unprincess wrote:oh geez, him too?especially now that I've learned some unsavory details about lead Ewan McGregor.
Paddington is a completely different type of film and character though. Pooh is a stuffed bear and his adventures are part of Christopher Robin's childhood whimsy and all meant to take place in his bedroom. Paddington was always real and the books are about his adventures when he comes to London, which the films follow. Plus Paddington was created by the same people behind Harry Potter, so you know the source material is in good hands. Disney is hit and miss, even when it comes to their own source material (Maleficent anyone). Not to mention the author of Paddington was still writing more books and even endorsed the first movie.disneyprincess11 wrote:Now, wait a minute: One of the highest praised movies of all time that just came out is Paddington 2: A bear that lives in the real world. I have faith in the story of Pooh & friends going to the real world. In fact, I'm intrigued by it. It sounds like they're keeping the magic, warmth, and innocence of Pooh, so I can't wait to see their curiosity in play.
My biggest thing is: Where's a teaser and poster? And who's Tigger, Rabbit, Owl, Gopher (?) etc.
I'm fine with Garrett playing Eeyore and Capaldi will be a much better Rabbit than Spongebob (no offense to the Spongebob voice actor, I just didn't like him in 2011's WtP). I think Jones will do a good job as Owl, too.Sotiris wrote: Eeyore: Brad Garrett

Jóhann Jóhannsson‘s manager Tim Husom revealed in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that the composer had signed on to score Disney’s upcoming fantasy drama Christopher Robin before he passed away last week.
