“I was flying a kite and it got caught on a nanny,” says one of the little Banks children, offering as good an explanation as any for the arrival of the ultimate child-minder in this new trailer for Disney’s Mary Poppins Returns.
Directed by Rob Marshall and starring Emily Blunt in the title role, the musical, floating down just before this Christmas, is a sequel to 1964’s Julie Andrews classic, and judging by this trailer seems spot-on in terms of tone and style. There’s even a big, splashy and colorful animation-live action hybrid scene, complete with penguins.

I'm not a fan of everything he's done, but he's quite talented.
Written by a Christian or God in general hater and directed by a pool party cake boy
And lorded over by a #metoo
Though Emily Blunt is my favorite under 40 acting chick
Actually I withdraw my denunciation and scourge
Unless the studio got into editorializing which they do with gratuitous homosexuality etc
The director and writers have stellar track records
And it has Dick Van Dyke
A cameo by Julie would have been nicd but she declined for good reasons
Emily Blunts smokey eyes are to die for....
But I'll be skipping this Mary Poppins re-boot. The first one was bad enough.
Lin Manuel Miranda - will not see it because of him. Thought he was a genius until he supported the Hamilton Casts dissing of our VP and expressed his love and support for Che Rivera.
This tool doesn’t deserve any of my capitalist money.
No more “spoonfuls of sugar”: Mary Poppins is now more Socially Responsible!
I thought Mary Poppins was in the second Guardians of the Galaxy movie.
I think Julie was cuter. To bad she went off the deep end. Or perhaps she was already there.
Are you thinking of “Bedknobs and Broomsticks”?
I had hoped to make it till 90 before I actually had to see what that scene looked like.
Define deep end.
Looks delightful.

If you have ever read the books, Mary Poppins was not really pretty like Julie Andrews.
The children’s adventures with her were also a lot scarier.
They both hate America!...& President Trump
No money for their coffers!
They did bring back Dick van Dyke to reprise one of his roles from the 1964 movie. But NOT the chimney sweep character. Apparently he also played the elderly bank president and now he’s old enough to NOT need makeup for the role!
Not seeing anyone Black in the images released so far. The adults are Jane and Michael, who also appear White.
I’m pleasantly surprised.
The first time was Ian McDiarmid as Emperor Palpatine in Return of the Jedi (1983) and Revenge of the Sith (2005).
Anyhoo, here's Dick van Dyke in the two Mary Poppins movies:
