Disney has debuted a new, lengthy trailer for their upcoming live-action adaptation of Dumbo, which is being directed by Tim Burton. This new movie will expand “…on the beloved classic story where differences are celebrated, family is cherished and dreams take flight.”

According to the official synopsis attached to the trailer, this story will see “Circus owner Max Medici (Danny DeVito) enlists former star Holt Farrier (Colin Farrell) and his children Milly (Nico Parker) and Joe (Finley Hobbins) to care for a newborn elephant whose oversized ears make him a laughingstock in an already struggling circus. But when they discover that Dumbo can fly, the circus makes an incredible comeback, attracting persuasive entrepreneur V.A. Vandevere (Michael Keaton), who recruits the peculiar pachyderm for his newest, larger-than-life entertainment venture, Dreamland. Dumbo soars to new heights alongside a charming and spectacular aerial artist, Colette Marchant (Eva Green), until Holt learns that beneath its shiny veneer, Dreamland is full of dark secrets.”

Dumbo arrives in theaters on March 29, 2019.
