The Mary Poppins Returns trailer is here and we're very excited. The new film, due out at the end of the year, sees Emily Blunt take on the iconic role of Mary Poppins, previously played by Julie Andrews.
Mary Poppins Returns is set around 20 years after the original, in the era of the Great Depression. It follows Jane (Emily Mortimer) and Michael (Ben Wishaw) Banks, now both grown up, with Michael's three children.
In the very short trailer posted across social media earlier today, we get to see a glimpse of the new film. It starts off following a discarded kite as it flies through the streets of London, eventually it attracts the attention of a little boy, who find something surprising at the end of it.
Watch the Mary Poppins Returns teaser below:
The teaser trailer ends with Mary arriving from the sky, later meeting up with a grown up Michael who can been seen excitedly saying, “Mary Poppins! It is wonderful to see you”.
With Mary repling, “Yes, it is, isn’t it?”
Since posting the trailer on social media it is already trending at number 1 on YouTube and has over 13,000 likes on Twitter.
Comments have been coming in quickly from excited fans with one saying, 'ohhhh myy goodness!!! I REALLY CAN'T WAIT' sic and another commenting, 'This is beautiful'.
The teaser trailer for Mary Poppins Returns was released to coincide with the Oscars 2018 which took place last night in Hollywood. Big winners on the night included The Shape of Water which won four of its 13 nominations, and British actor Gary Oldman took home the prestigious Best Actor award for his part in Darkest Hour.

Costume Design: Mark Bridges, Phantom Thread
Given that Phantom Thread delves into the world of '50s couture, with Daniel Day Lewis playing a highly-strung design virtuoso, the costumes by regular Paul Thomas Anderson collaborator Mark Bridges were always going to be a shoe-in (no pun intended) for the Costume Oscar.
Best Supporting Actress: Allison Janney
Allison Janney's first Oscar (for her role as LaVona Harding in I, Tonya) couldn't be more well-deserved. She beat competition from Lady Bird's Laurie Metcalf, The Shape of Water's Octavia Spencer, Phantom Thread's Lesley Manville and Mudbound's Mary J. Blige.

Best Director: Guillermo del Toro, The Shape Of Water

Best Actor: Gary Oldman, Darkest Hour
Gary Oldman took his first Oscar for his portrayal of Winston Churchill in Darkest Hour, which required an extensive transformation involving hours of prosthetics.
