I\u2019m packing my bags and headed to Los Angeles next week for the Pete’s Dragon event! The main reason is to attend the red carpet premiere of Disney\u2019s Pete\u2019s Dragon! The 24 other bloggers and I will also be interviewing Bryce Dallas Howard, who plays the forest ranger, Grace. Pete\u2019s Dragon will be in theaters released nationwide on August 12, 2016.<\/p>\n

Pete’s Dragon Event \u2014 Red Carpet & Advanced Screenings<\/h3>\n

This movie is a remake of the 1977 classic live-action musical which features an animated dragon. The new film is not a musical so I\u2019m curious to find out how the story will appeal to the next generation. The official movie summary is below.<\/p>\n

For years, old wood carver Mr. Meacham (Robert Redford) has delighted local children with his tales of the fierce dragon that resides deep in the woods of the Pacific Northwest. To his daughter, Grace (Bryce Dallas Howard), who works as a forest ranger, these stories are little more than tall tales\u2026until she meets Pete (Oakes Fegley). Pete is a mysterious 10-year-old with no family and no home who claims to live in the woods with a giant, green dragon named Elliot. And from Pete\u2019s descriptions, Elliot seems remarkably similar to the dragon from Mr. Meacham\u2019s stories. With the help of Natalie (Oona Laurence), an 11-year-old girl whose father Jack (Wes Bentley) owns the local lumber mill, Grace sets out to determine where Pete came from, where he belongs, and the truth about this dragon.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
