I seriously screamed when I saw the trailer for the new Mary Poppins Returns movie!! I grew up watching the original movie and it is a part of my childhood. I have watched it hundreds of times and still as an adult watch it. I make my son watch it with me and do the dancing with the songs. He may have rolled his eyes a few times at me while we do it too! I fondly remember my siblings and I dancing and singing along with the movie too, it fills with my heart with joy. In elementary school we even had our school concert singing all the songs from the movie! Mary Poppins is a part of who I am!!!

In the sequel, which arrives in theaters this Christmas, Mary Poppins is back to help the next generation of the Banks family find the joy and wonder missing in their lives. MARY POPPINS RETURNS stars Emily Blunt as the practically-perfect nanny with unique magical skills who can turn any task into an unforgettable, fantastic adventure; Lin-Manuel Miranda as her friend Jack, an optimistic street lamplighter who helps bring light—and life—to the streets of London; Ben Whishaw as Michael Banks; Emily Mortimer as Jane Banks; and Julie Walters as the Banks’ housekeeper Ellen; with Colin Firth as Fidelity Fiduciary Bank’s William Weatherall Wilkins; and Meryl Streep as Mary’s eccentric cousin, Topsy. The film also introduces three new Banks’ children played by Pixie Davies, Nathanael Saleh and newcomer Joel Dawson. 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.
