Into The Woods character posters released

A series of character posters have been released for Disney’s Into The Woods.

Into the Woods is a modern twist on the beloved Brothers Grimm fairy tales, intertwining the plots of a few choice stories and exploring the consequences of the charactersā€™ wishes and quests. This humorous and heartfelt musical follows the classic tales of Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, and Rapunzelā€”all tied together by an original story involving a baker and his wife, their wish to begin a family and their interaction with the witch who has put a curse on them.

The all-star ensemble cast featured in the character posters are:

  • Meryl Streep (ā€œThe Iron Lady,ā€ ā€œThe Devil Wears Prada,ā€ ā€œAugust: Osage Countyā€) portrays the Witch who wishes to reverse a curse so that her beauty may be restored.
  • Emily Blunt (ā€œLooper,ā€ ā€œThe Young Victoria,ā€ ā€œThe Devil Wears Pradaā€) is the Bakerā€™s Wife, a childless woman who longs to be a mother.
  • James Corden (Broadwayā€™s ā€œOne Man, Two Guvnors,ā€ ā€œThe Three Musketeers,ā€ ā€œGavin & Staceyā€) plays the role of the Baker, a hard-working man who desperately wants to start a family.
  • Anna Kendrick (ā€œPitch Perfect,ā€ ā€œUp in the Airā€) fills the shoes of Cinderella, who finds herself on a journey of self-discovery.
  • Chris Pine (ā€œStar Trek Into Darkness,ā€ ā€œJack Ryanā€) portrays Cinderellaā€™s Prince, charming and impossibly handsome, who is on an endless quest to find his bride.
  • Johnny Depp (ā€œPirates of the Caribbeanā€ films, ā€œThe Lone Ranger,ā€ ā€œSweeney Toddā€) steps in as the Wolf, who sets his sights on Little Red Riding Hood.
  • Lilla Crawford (Broadwayā€™s ā€œAnnieā€) makes her feature-film debut as Little Red Riding Hood, a smart and spunky girl who journeys into the woods, finding unexpected adventures along the way.
  • Daniel Huttlestone (ā€œLes MisĆ©rablesā€) lands the role of Jack, an absentminded and adventurous boy who trades his treasured cow for five magic beans.
  • MacKenzie Mauzy (ā€œBrotherā€™s Keeper,ā€ Broadwayā€™s ā€œNext to Normalā€) plays Rapunzel, a sheltered young woman who experiences the world beyond her tower for the first time.
  • Billy Magnussen (Broadwayā€™s ā€œVanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike,ā€ ā€œBoardwalk Empire,ā€ ā€œThe Eastā€) is the dashing and eager Prince who courts Rapunzel.
