The BAFTA-winning writer of Wonka and the Paddington sequels brings Enid Blyton's bestselling children's classic to life in an enchanting big-screen adventure for all the family.
The beloved story follows Polly and Tim Thompson and their children - Beth, Joe, and Fran - who are uprooted from the city and relocated to the remote English countryside. There, they discover a magical tree and embark on a series of adventures with its extraordinary and eccentric residents.
Andrew Garfield and Claire Foy star as Tim and Polly, with newcomers Delilah Bennett-Cardy, Billie Gadsdon, and Phoenix Laroche as the Thompson children. The tree's inhabitants, who can transport visitors to fantastical faraway lands, include Nicola Coughlan as Silky, Nonso Anozie as Moonface, Jessica Gunning as Dame Washalot, and
Dustin Demri-Burns as Saucepan Man. British icons Sirs Lenny Henry, Michael Palin, and Simon Russell Beale are a trio of mystical wise men from the Land of Know-Alls, while Jennifer Saunders plays the kids' ruthless Grandma. Rebecca Ferguson rounds out the cast as Dame Snap, their scary headmistress and one of Blyton's most iconic villains.
