The first trailer was certainly nice, and now here's the second one for Disney's November fantasy NUTCRACKER AND THE FOUR REALMS! All Clara (Mackenzie Foy) wants is a special key that will unlock a box that

holds a priceless gift. A golden thread, presented to her at godfather Drosselmeyer's (Morgan Freeman) annual holiday party, leads her to the coveted key, which promptly disappears into a strange and mysterious parallel world. There, Clara encounters a soldier named Phillip (Jayden Fowora Knight), a gang of mice and the regents who preside over three Realms: Land of Snowflakes, Land of Flowers and Land of Sweets. Clara and Phillip must brave the ominous Fourth Realm, home to the tyrant Mother Ginger (Helen Mirren), to retrieve Clara's key and hopefully return harmony to the unstable world. The movie was directed by Lasse Hallström with his colleague Joe
Captain America's Joe Johnston was brought in the end to ad action scenes

'BEL CANTO' TRAILER SEES
JULIANNE MOORE, CHRISTOPHER LAMBERT, KEN WATANABE ARE IN GRAVE DANGER
Bel Canto starts to sing this September
Equally interesting, but a lot more scary, is the first trailer for new Julianne Moore thriller movie BEL CANTO in which she plays Roxane Coss, a famous American soprano, who travels to South America to give a private concert at the birthday party of rich Japanese industrialist Katsumi Hosokawa (Ken Watanabe). Just as a handsome gathering of local dignitaries convenes at Vice President Ruben Ochoa's mansion, including French Ambassador Thibault (Christopher Lambert), the house is taken over by guerrillas led by Comandante Benjamin (Tenoch Huerta) demanding the release of their imprisoned comrades. Their only contact with the outside

world is through Red Cross negotiator Messner (Sebastian Koch). A month long standoff ensues in which hostages and captors must overcome their differences and find their shared humanity and hope in the face of impending disaster.
yes, you can see the change from the first trailer and this one, how they brought Johnston to 'americanize' Hallstrom's gentle touch by adding superficial speedy dynamics to some scenes. It does look lovely visually, though I just mostly hate Disney's casting choices.
Great posters and a delightful trailer with beautiful people and outfits (The Nutcracker)!
As for Bel Canto - well, opera music doesn't go too well with shootings and hostages, but who knows, maybe this thriller will nevertheless be successful.
I think The Nutcracker looks beautiful. It's definitely high on my must see this for this year. I've got date nights with my niece for this one and next year's new Addams Family flick lined up. Can't wait!

I saw the Nutcracker preview a few weeks ago, and I'm skeptical. Not sure it's going to be...awesome.

Most people would probably lose their voice, but she will have to sing for the terrorists!
