Disney's "The Nutcracker and the Four Realms" will arrive in cinemas on November 2, 2018.

The announcement came on Saturday during D23 Expo here.


Starring as the Sugar Plum Fairy, newcomer Mackenzie Foy as Clara, as Mother Ginger, Morgan Freeman as godfather Drosselmeyer, the movie is inspired by E T A Hoffmann's classic tale "The Nutcracker and the Mouse King".

The live-action remake largely takes place in a strange and mysterious parallel world-home to Land of Snowflakes, Land of Flowers and Land of Sweets.

"The Nutcracker and the Four Realms" is directed by Lasse Hallstrom and produced by Mark Gordon and Larry Franco.
