No strings: Teaser to 'Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio' now available

A new teaser for "Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio," a stop-motion animated version of Carlo Collodi's children's tale, has been released.

Gregory Mann voices the titular wooden marionette who gets his magic wish to become a flesh-and-blood boy in the film from the visionary Oscar winner.

Guiding him along the way is Ewan McGregor's Sebastian J. Cricket.

"It's a story you think you know, but you don't. Not really," Cricket chuckles.
