We've already had one trailer for the latest adaptation of Frances Hodgson Burnett's classic kids' tome The Secret Garden. Now here comes a fresh glimpse at the film, which has the backing of Paddington and Potter producer David Heyman. Have a look...
As in the book, the film tells the story of Mary Lennox (Dixie Egerickx), a prickly and unloved 10-year-old girl, born in India to wealthy British parents. When they suddenly die, she is sent back to England to live with her uncle, Archibald Craven (Colin Firth, on stern form) on his remote country estate deep in the Yorkshire moors. There, she begins to uncover many family secrets, particularly after meeting her sickly cousin Colin (Edan Hayhurst), who has been shut away in a wing of the house. Together, these two damaged, slightly misfit children heal each other through their discovery of a wondrous secret garden, lost in the grounds of Misselthwaite Manor. A magical place of adventure that will change their lives forever.
With Julie Walters classing the joint up as housekeeper Mrs. Medlock plus Amir Wilson and Isis Davis also in the ensemble, this one comes from writer Jack Thorne and director Marc Munden. The film lands on 17 April.
