Right now we are heading to Florida for the kids spring break and we have on the fabulous Mary Poppins Returns in the car. My kids became obsessed with the movie back in December, seeing it 3 times in the theater, as well as attending the sing along. With it being available ON Digital 4K Ultra HD™, 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray™, my kids can enjoy Mary Poppins Returns every single day now. This is one movie you do not want to miss out on purchasing.
In December, I along with a group of bloggers, was invited to LA for the press junket of Mary Poppins Returns. You can find my interviews with songwriters Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman, Pixie Davies (Anabel Banks) and Joel Dawson(Georgie Banks), director Rob Marshall, Ben Whishaw (Michael Banks) and Emily Mortimer(Jane Banks) ,Lin-Manuel Miranda (Jack) and Emily Blunt (Mary Poppins).
