Directed by Rob Marshall, Into the Woods is an exciting new musical fantasy film inspired by the Grimm Brothers’ fairy tales of Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk and Rapunzel.
Once upon a time in a far off Kingdom when the Baker (James Corden) was a child, his Father (Simon Russell Beale) was caught stealing magic beans from the vegetable garden of the Witch (Meryl Streep) next door. As punishment for losing the beans, the Witch was placed under a curse which made her ugly. The Witch, in turn, cast an evil spell on the Baker’s household, insuring that the Baker and his wife (Emily Blunt) would never have a child.
When the Baker and his wife learn of the curse, they venture into the woods to seek out the ingredients which will reverse the spell and restore the Witch’s beauty. By the time the blue moon rises in three days’ time, something which only occurs once every 100 years, they must return with a cow as white as milk, hair as yellow as corn, a cape as red as blood and a slipper as pure as gold.
On their journey into the woods, they encounter Cinderella (Anna Kendrick), the fair maiden Rapunzel (MacKenzie Mauzy), young Jack (Daniel Huttlestone), who is trying to sell a white cow, and Little Red Riding Hood (Lilla Crawford), who is on her way to Granny’s house while being pursued by a wolf (Johnny Depp).
