Goodbye Christopher Robin, the A.A. Milne biopic, has released its first poster; a sweetly charming look at a tale of a father and son.
Instead, Goodbye Christopher Robin is based on the real life story of Winnie-the-Pooh creator, Milne, and his relationship with his son, Christopher Robin, whose love for his toys inspired Milne’s stories.
The project has been overshadowed somewhat by talk of Disney’s Christopher Robin movie, but Fox Searchlight will be firing up the publicity engine now, given that Goodbye Christopher Robin is set to arrive this Fall.
Goodbye Christopher Robin follows the Milne family and their nanny, Olive (Macdonald), as the success of Milne’s stories takes over their lives.
