Pooh, Potter, Muppets, Sherlock and Batman !

There seems to be so many new trailers and posters being released this week that I have decided to post them all together today.

First up, a couple of short trailers for Winnie The Pooh that spoof (or should that be take advantage of) the final instalment of Harry Potter.





The Winnie The Pooh movie had its UK release in April but US audiences have to wait until July 15. It's a very sweet little movie that harks back to the early days of Disney but I'm guessing ticket sales won't be huge for this given its clash with the Boy Wizard.

Next up is the latest post for 'The Muppets' due for US release November 23 and UK release Feb 17th 2012. The movie stars Jason Segel, Amy Adams and Chris Cooper and is Directed by James Bobin.

The story sees Adams and Segel's characters raising money via a Muppet Telethon to prevent greedy oil magnate Tex Richman who discovers oil underneath the Muppet Theatre. It's then up to Kermit the Frog to reunite the Muppets who have all gone their seperate ways.

Segel pitched an idea to Disney in 2008 who then offered him to develop a script with Nicholas Stoller. 

The movie promises lots of cameos, some cracking musical numbers and quite a few laughs. I look forward to this.

Here is the teaser poster for The Dark Knight Rises, due for release 20 July 2012. Once again directed by Christopher Nolan and Starring Christian Bale as 'Bruce Wayne'/'Batman', Anne Hathaway as 'Catwoman', Tom Hardy as 'Bane', Gary Oldman as 'Jim Gordon' and Marion Cottilard as 'Miranda Tate'.

With a budget of $250 million this will be the final part of Nolan's DC Comics character trilogy and rumours suggest it may be filmed entirely in IMAX format film but not in 3D

Lastly, Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows, the follow up to the hugely successful 2009 movie. This film reunites original stars Robert Downey Jnr. as 'Holmes', Jude Law as 'Watson' and Rachel McAdams as 'Irene Adler' and this time the team join forces to try and bring down their biggest enemy.....Professor Moriarty. Two new additions to the cast are ProductionDiaries favourite Stephen Fry as Sherlock's brother 'Mycroft Holmes' and Jared Harris as 'Moriarty'. The film is due for release for release December 16 and I think these 2 teaser posters look great. TheProductionDiaries.com will feature the first trailer in the next few weeks so keep checking back.
