I love holiday movies and this looks like a good one! A new poster for the upcoming film COME AWAY was just unveiled yesterday. It reminds me of a remake of Alice in Wonderland but with a predominately African American cast. Speaking of the cast it includes, David Oyelowo, Angelina Jolie and Anna Chancellor. Check out the trailer inside…
ABOUT COME AWAY
In this imaginative origin story of two of the most beloved characters in literature – Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland – eight-year-old Alice (Keira Chansa), her mischievous brother Peter (Jordan A. Nash) and their brilliant older sibling David (Reece Yates) let their imaginations run wild one blissful summer in the English countryside. Encouraged by their parents Jack and Rose (David Oyelowo and Angelina Jolie), the kids’ make-believe tea parties, sword fights and pirate ship adventures come to an abrupt end when tragedy strikes. Peter, eager to prove himself a hero to his grief-stricken and financially-struggling parents, journeys with Alice to London, where they try to sell a treasured heirloom to the sinister pawnshop owner known as C.J. (David Gyasi). Returning home, Alice seeks temporary refuge in a wondrous rabbit hole while Peter permanently escapes reality by entering a magical realm as leader of the “Lost Boys.”
In theaters and On Demand November 13th
