In among all of the Disney live-action remakes, the House of Mouse are putting out a reboot of one of their classics with Mary Poppins Returns.
As a follow-up – and one that stars Hamilton's Lin-Manuel Miranda of all people – you can expect a bevy of new songs in the vein of the original, and now you can hear one such song in this newest teaser.
As new songs go, we're liking it – but we're also not sure whether any song will ever be as good as 'A Spoonful of Sugar' or the one where Dick Van Dyke tries to do a cockney accent.
Although it must be said that Emily Blunt is channelling Julie Andrews splendidly in the vocal department, and we're keen to hear more.
Also, there are animated animals interacting with the live-action actors! And not just CGI ones, but 2D animated ones too! PL Travers/Emma Thompson might be spinning in her grave but we are here for it.
Blunt recently spoke about how it's the perfect time for the magical nanny to return. "The world is fragile right now, and people need a film like this," she explained.
What to Read Next
"It's incredibly hopeful. I didn't watch the original while shooting, but it's seared into my memory – this idea of her as this incredibly unsentimental character who swept into their lives and made it all right. I found a great comfort in that as a child."
Mary Poppins Returns will be opening on December 19 in US cinemas and on December 21 in the UK.
