The holiday season is fast approaching and let me just say October-December are my ABSOLUTE favorite months of the year! I’m so excited for all the festivities and we have some great movies coming out this year. Connor and I are about to go watch a sneak peek of The Nutcracker and the Four Realms. I’ll let y’all know how that is soon!
What I am MOST excited about is Mary Poppins Returns! I just adore Emily Blunt and she’s one of my favorite actresses ever. I’m convinced she and John would be the most fun couple to hang out with IRL.
So, ladies get your hats out and your big HUGE purses….because Mary Poppins Returns hits theaters everywhere on December 19th.
(I have a feeling the umbrella emoji is about to get some major #LOVE)
Check out this new special look about the music and magic from MARY POPPINS RETURNS!
ABOUT:
In Disney’s MARY POPPINS RETURNS, an all-new original musical and sequel, Mary Poppins is back to help the next generation of the Banks family find the joy and wonder missing in their lives following a personal loss. Emily Blunt stars as the practically-perfect nanny with unique magical skills who can turn any ordinary task into an unforgettable, fantastic adventure and Lin-Manuel Miranda plays her friend Jack, an optimistic street lamplighter who helps bring light—and life—to the streets of London.
MARY POPPINS RETURNS is directed by Rob Marshall. The screenplay is by David Magee and the screen story is by Magee & Rob Marshall & John DeLuca based upon the Mary Poppins Stories by PL Travers. The producers are John DeLuca, p.g.a., Rob Marshall, p.g.a. and Marc Platt, p.g.a. with Callum McDougall serving as executive producer. The music score is by Marc Shaiman and the film features all new original songs with music by Shaiman and lyrics by Scott Wittman and Shaiman. The film also stars Ben Whishaw as Michael Banks; Emily Mortimer as Jane Banks; Julie Walters as the Banks’ housekeeper Ellen; Pixie Davies, Nathanael Saleh and introducing Joel Dawson as the Banks’ children, with Colin Firth as Fidelity Fiduciary Bank’s William Weatherall Wilkins; and Meryl Streep as Mary’s eccentric cousin, Topsy. Angela Lansbury appears as the Balloon Lady, a treasured character from the PL Travers books and Dick Van Dyke is Mr. Dawes, Jr., the retired chairman of the bank now run by Firth’s character.
I haven’t drawn in a long while, but every now and again I get the urge to sketch. I used to draw all the time! I was inspired to draw this version of Mary Poppins played by Emily Blunt. I love the coat, gloves, and of course the magical purse. Maybe I’ll sit down a bit more and do some more sketches.
Cheers everyone! Enjoy the magic of the season…and if you are throwing a “Mary Poppins” themed party don’t forget this party I shared earlier this year HERE. It seriously was the cutest party ever.
