News about Mary Poppins 2016 has been making the rounds on the internet as of late. And Tim Burton is reportedly directing it.
A mock poster of the movie has been released early this year. The poster is made in a way that would definitely be related to Tim Burton, as the style and aesthetics show. However, it has also been reported that the poster is nothing but fan-made. Fans are quick to disregard this fact and still revel in the idea of a possible Tim Burton Mary Poppins 2016 movie.
As taken from Hallels: "According to a Doctor Disney report, a photo of the poster can be seen with the names 'Helena Bonham Carter' and 'Johnny Depp'written on the very top upper hand corners. The description 'Winds in the East, There's a Mist Coming In, Like Something Brewing and About to Begin'follows the names. In the middle, in big bold font, is 'Poppins' with the logo of Disney sitting on top of it. Just under the title is the description saying that the film is from Tim Burton."
Also taken from the same source, properly sighting their own source: "According to Fairy Tale News Blog, the frenzy was even further sparked by Cartarsauce (@cartarsauce), a Twitter user who twitted a photo of the fan-made poster together with the description:
'What in the name of all things that are #PracticallyPerfect? A #marypoppins #timburton reboot?!?! Is this for real?'
The so called 'Poppins/Mary Poppins 2016' trailer that was uploaded via YouTube did not help either. The video which was posted on YouTube, featured the same poster that was created by a fan, together with clips from the rumored movie.
Up until now though, there has been no confirmation yet as to whether there is truth behind the rumors that followed the photo of the poster, as well as, the tweet by Cartarsauce."
Release date for the upcoming movie has been speculated by fans to be in 2016.
