Vertical Entertainment has released the official trailer for “Wonderwell,” the final film that Carrie Fisher completed before her passing in late 2016.
12-year-old Violet (newcomer Kiera Milward) is living in Italy with her American parents and older sister Savannah (Nell Tiger Free). When Savannah is selected to be the face of world-renowned designer Yana’s (Rita Ora) fashion label, the family travels to a medieval village for a photo shoot.
Neglected and bored, Violet wanders from the ancient Tuscan town into a nearby forest where she meets the enigmatic Hazel (Carrie Fisher), who may be the fabled witch of the woods Violet was warned about by Yana’s beleaguered stepson, Daniele (Sebastian Croft).
Guided by Hazel to a mysterious portal, Violet is offered a glimpse of what her future might hold, but like the transition from childhood to womanhood, it may be a journey of no return.
The coming-of-age adventure blends CG and live-action and is directed by Vlad Marsavin from a script by William Brookfield. Fred Roos, Alexander Roos, Vlad Marsavin, Orian Williams, Lee Rudnicki and Robert Bernacchi produce.
The film is slated for a limited theatrical release through AMC beginning June 23rd and will be followed by a digital release.
