The famous mischievous rabbit is heading to the big screen as Colombia Pictures and Sony Pictures Animation releases the official trailer for their upcoming film Peter Rabbit. View trailer below.

Peter Rabbit, the mischievous and adventurous hero who has captivated generations of readers, now takes on the starring role of his own irreverent, contemporary comedy with attitude. In the film, Peter’s feud with Mr. McGregor (Domhnall Gleeson) escalates to greater heights than ever before as they rival for the affections of the warm-hearted animal lover who lives next door (Rose Byrne). James Corden voices the character of Peter with playful spirit and wild charm, with Margot Robbie, Elizabeth Debicki, and Daisy Ridley performing the voice roles of the triplets, Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cottontail.

I do remember reading the Peter Rabbit book when I was young, so when I watched this movie trailer I kind had a brief moment of childhood nostalgia. Naturally, this is a kids movie, so (as one can tell from the trailer) that there’s going to be plenty of childish angst / slapstick comedy throughout the movie. It kind of reminds me of the Garfield live-action films. Personally, I like everyone attached to this movie (i.e Corden, Robbie, Ridley, Gleeson, Byrne, etc). All in all, Peter Rabbit, while not on my definite “must see” list, is definitely on my radar for the early 2018 movies.
