Synopsis
Mary Poppins Returns (2018) is a Disney musical fantasy you can watch online on iFILM. Depression-era London, decades after the first visit. The Banks children are grown; Michael is a widower about to lose the family house on Cherry Tree Lane. Then a familiar nanny drifts down from the clouds on her umbrella.
Emily Blunt takes the role Julie Andrews made famous and plays it her own way — crisp, sly and quietly stubborn. Lin-Manuel Miranda joins as Jack the lamplighter, alongside Michael's three kids and a roll call of guests: Meryl Streep, Colin Firth, Angela Lansbury and original star Dick Van Dyke. Set to Marc Shaiman's score, the cast tumbles into a hand-drawn animated world inside a china bowl and dances across the city's lamps.
Director Rob Marshall (Chicago) made the sequel 54 years after the 1964 original, mixing live action, classic 2D animation and nine new songs that drew Oscar and Golden Globe nominations. It runs 130 minutes and plays for the whole family. Stream Mary Poppins Returns (2018) online on iFILM.
