Disney’s ‘The Nutcracker’ will have sweet sneak peek for Disney parks guests

Expected to be the big holiday tent-pole for 2018, Disney’s “The Nutcracker and the Four Realms” looks to be a visual feast as the movie puts a new twist on a holiday classic. Break out your sugar plums, for a limited time guests visiting Disneyland and Walt Disney World will be able to enjoy a special 12 minute preview of Disney’s dazzling new fantasy adventure.

The film’s star Mackenzie Foy (Clara) has a special message for guests:

At Disney’s California Adventure you’ll find the special sneak peak in the Sunset Showcase Theater in Hollywood land. It will be presented in 3D in Anaheim. In Orlando, guests get a 2D sneak peek, when they visit Disney’s Hollywood Studios’ Walt Disney Presents attraction.

The sneak peeks start October 5 and run for a limited time.

About the film:

All Clara wants is a key – a one-of-a-kind key that will unlock a box that holds a priceless gift. A golden thread, presented to her at godfather Drosselmeyer’s (Morgan Freeman) annual holiday party, leads her to the coveted key—which promptly disappears into a strange and mysterious parallel world. It’s there that Clara encounters a soldier named Phillip (Jayden Fowora-Knight), a gang of mice and the regents who preside over three Realms: Land of Snowflakes, Land of Flowers and Land of Sweets. Clara and Phillip must brave the ominous Fourth Realm, home to the tyrant Mother Ginger (Helen Mirren), to retrieve Clara’s key and hopefully return harmony to the unstable world. Starring Keira Knightley as the Sugar Plum Fairy, Disney’s new holiday feature film “The Nutcracker and the Four Realms” is directed by Lasse Hallström and Joe Johnston, and inspired by E.T.A. Hoffmann’s classic tale.

Disney’s “The Nutcracker and the Four Realms” dances into to U.S. theaters in 3D on November 2, 2018.
