Author Beatrix Potter’s beloved character Peter Rabbit is hopping into theatres, courtesy of James Corden. Created in 1902, the rascally rabbit is the star of his very first big screen adventure with an all-star voice cast bringing Potter’s creatures to life.
The modern re-imagining of the story of Peter Rabbit sees Corden as the voice of the rabbit in the blue jacket, with Margot Robbie, Daisy Ridley and Elizabeth Debicki voicing his bunny friends, Cottontail, Flopsy and Mopsy. Friends to the kindhearted Bea (Rose Byrne), the wild animals of the garden meet their match when it comes to their new neighbour, Mr. McGregor (Domhnall Gleeson) who has it in for the bunnies. As he falls for Bea, McGregor pretends to be a friend to Peter and his pals, but the mischievous rabbits pull all kinds of garden tricks to get him to show his sweetheart his true colours.
