Get your snozzcumbers ready, because The BFG is on the way.
Following the very first teaser, Disney has released a brand new theatrical one-sheet for Steven Spielberg’s live-action take on Roald Dahl’s beloved children’s classic. The poster features young Sophie (Ruby Barnhill) looking up in awe at the big friendly giant of the title, who’ll be brought to life by Bridge of Spies actor Mark Rylance.
The BFG is arguably Dahl’s most popular and enduring tale, which is saying a lot. It tells the story of a young girl who is whisked away at night by what she assumes is a terrifying creature, but soon realizes is the friendliest giant in Giant Country.
Unfortunately not all of his neighbors are quite so affable, and the duo find themselves in a race against time to save the denizens of London from an invading band of flesh-eating monsters.
The BFG opens in U.S. theaters on July 1, 2016, the year that marks the 100th anniversary of Dahl’s birth. Check out the full poster below and let us know what you think by dropping a comment.
