Watch “Stay with Me” clip from Disney’s Into The Woods

IntoTheWoods-witch-2

Disney has released a little clip from it’s December 25th release of the Sondheim musical “Into the Woods.” It features a few behind the scenes moments setting up the clip and then you get Meryl Streep, as The Witch, singing “Stay With Me.”

We knew Streep had acting chops, and a few remember that she could sing in Mamma Mia, but I think this clip puts any worries about her casting to rest.

“Into the Woods” is a modern twist on several of the beloved Brothers Grimm fairy tales, intertwining the plots of a few choice stories and exploring the consequences of the characters’ wishes and quests. This humorous and heartfelt musical follows the classic tales of Cinderella (Anna Kendrick), Little Red Riding Hood (Lilla Crawford), Jack and the Beanstalk (Daniel Huttlestone), and Rapunzel (MacKenzie Mauzy), all tied together by an original story involving a Baker and his Wife (James Corden and Emily Blunt), their wish to begin a family and their interaction with the Witch (Meryl Streep), who has put a curse on them.

Rob Marshall, the acclaimed filmmaker behind the Academy Award-winning musical “Chicago” and Disney’s “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides,” directs the film, which is based on the Tony-winning original musical by James Lapine, who also penned the screenplay, and legendary composer Stephen Sondheim, who provides the music and lyrics. Produced by John DeLuca, Marshall, “Wicked” producer Marc Platt and Callum McDougall, “Into the Woods” will be released in theaters December 25, 2014

  1. Has Ms. Streep ever apologized for her caustic remarks about Walt Disney made earlier this year? I want to like her and be a fan because of her incredible talent, but she just leaves a bad taste in my mouth. A simple apology is all I want. Then I can enjoy Into The Woods.
