The director is known for his dark movies, including Pan's Labyrinth and Hellboy. This time around, he's comparing his take on the classic fairy tale to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.
"They are both about a child that is thrown into the world. They are both created by a father who then expects them to figure out what's good, what's bad, the ethics, the morals, love, life, and essentials, on their own," del Toro said in an interview."I think that was, for me, childhood. You had to figure it out with your very limited experience."Pinocchio, the stop-motion film, is set in 1930s Italy, between the two World Wars.
"[Pinocchio] is recruited into the village military camp, because the fascist official in town thinks if this puppet cannot die, it would make the perfect soldier," del Toro said. His cricket companion will be voiced by Ewan McGregor, with David Bradley voicing his father, Geppetto. Tilda Swinton will voice his fairy godmother, with Christoph Waltz and Tim Blake Nelson also cast in the film.
Disney will also soon be releasing its own retelling of the story in a live-action film starring Tom Hanks as Geppetto. It will begin streaming on Disney+ in September 2022.Netflix will begin streaming del Toro's Pinocchio in December 2022.
