By Tribute on March 29, 2019 | Leave a Comment

As Disney continues to work through their back catalog of classic animated films, Dumbo is the latest in their line of live-action remakes, following the likes of Alice in Wonderland (which Tim Burton also directed), Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, and The Jungle Book. In fact, the film will be the first of three to hit theaters this year, as it will be followed by Aladdin in May and The Lion King in July. The film offers an opportunity for a new generation of audiences to enjoy a classic while allowing older ones to revisit it through a modern lens.

Dumbo hits theaters today nationwide and is joined by The Beach Bum starring Matthew McConaughey and Dev Patel‘s latest film, Hotel Mumbai.
