‘The Nutcracker and the Four Realms’. This is the movie your daughter will be begging you to take her to this fall. Like other recent big-screen live-action adaptations from Disney, such as 2015’s “Cinderella” and last year’s “Beauty and the Beast,” this fantasy drama looks incredibly sumptuous. Based on on E.T.A. Hoffman’s 1816 work “The Nutcracker and the Mouse King” and Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s famous ballet, the film is directed by Lasse Hallstrom (“The Cider House Rules”) and Joe Johnston (“October Sky”). While Mackenzie Foy (“Interstellar”) stars Clara, who finds a very special nutcracker, big names in the supporting cast include Keira Knightley, Helen Mirren and Morgan Freeman. Buckle up for a magical journey to the Land of Sweets, the Land of Snowflakes, the Land of Flowers and the Fourth Realm, as well as the spectacular Palace in the middle of it all.
