Netflix has premiered the teaser trailer for Oscar-winning filmmaker Guillermo del Toro’s stop-motion animated musical adventure “Pinocchio”.

The mischievous and disobedient Pinocchio soon sets out in pursuit of his place in the world. Mark Gustafson co-directs the film with del Toro.
The all-star cast includes Ewan McGregor as Cricket, David Bradley as Geppetto, Gregory Mann as Pinocchio along with Finn Wolfhard, Cate Blanchett, John Turturro, Ron Perlman, Tim Blake Nelson, Burn Gorman, Christoph Waltz and Tilda Swinton.
Netflix is targeting a December release for the film.
