New footage revealed in the new TV spots for Robert Zemeckis' The Witches!

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Robert Zemeckis' upcoming remake of THE WITCHES, written by Guillermo del Toro and based on the book by Roald Dahl, has just released some new TV spots that show off some quick glimpses of new footage (including a sweet, homemade rocket coaster for the kids-turned-rats), which you can watch at the top of the article! Below is the official synopsis:

Reimagining Dahl’s beloved story for a modern audience, Zemeckis’s visually innovative film tells the darkly humorous and heartwarming tale of a young orphaned boy (Bruno) who, in late 1967, goes to live with his loving Grandma (Spencer) in the rural Alabama town of Demopolis. As the boy and his grandmother encounter some deceptively glamorous but thoroughly diabolical witches, she wisely whisks our young hero away to an opulent seaside resort. Regrettably, they arrive at precisely the same time that the world’s Grand High Witch (Hathaway) has gathered her fellow cronies from around the globe—undercover—to carry out her nefarious plans.
