真人版《木偶奇遇記》PINOCCHIO: LIVE ON SCREEN
在迪士尼+頻道和皮諾丘一同歷險 Disney is cutting this puppet’s strings and bringing him to a device near you
看來迪士尼又再次經典重現了！
《木偶奇遇記》只是迪士尼公司最新改編自經典卡通的真人電影；與之前動畫改編的真人電影相同，迪士尼創作團隊在致敬原作的同時，也基於原作故事再加以擴編。
一九四○年這部手繪動畫鉅片是由創作於一八○○年代的義大利經典小說改編而成。
雖然小說與電影內容十分不同，但兩者故事都是循著小木偶皮諾丘的冒險旅程展開。
最早的故事設定是要教導孩子們道德課題——像是聽父母的話以及誠實。
電影團隊也確定會保留一九四○年動畫電影版裡受大眾喜愛的角色。
許多耳熟能詳的人物像是皮諾丘慈愛的父親、聰明的蟋蟀先生吉明尼、魔法藍仙女等都會出現；不只如此，之前演出過迪士尼電影的幾位演員更接下其中一些角色。
最值得注意的就是資深演員湯姆˙漢克斯將在這部改編電影中演出小木偶的爸爸傑佩托。
It looks like Disney has done it again! Pinocchio is just the latest of the company's cartoon classics to be adapted into a live-action film. Like Disney's previous live-action adaptations, the creators have honored the original while also expanding on the original source.
It was from the classic Italian novel written in the 1800s that the hand-drawn masterpiece from 1940 was originally adapted. Though the book and original movie are quite different, they both follow the adventures of the wooden boy Pinocchio.
The original tale was meant to teach children lessons on morality - such as listening to their parents and being honest.
The creators also made sure to keep the beloved characters from the 1940 film. Many familiar faces such as Pinocchio's loving father, the wise Jiminy Cricket, the magical Blue Fairy and more will appear. Not only that, several actors with previous
Disney films under their belts have taken on some of these characters. Most notably, veteran actor Tom Hanks plays Geppetto, the puppet's father, in this adaptation.
