Fifty-four years since her big-screen debut, Mary Poppins is still practically perfect in every way. The magical nanny reappears in Disney's highly-anticipated sequel, "Mary Poppins Returns," starring Emily Blunt in the charming titular role (as Julie Andrews did before her in the 1964 musical movie).
Set in 1934, instead of 1910 like the original, director Rob Marshall's follow-up finds Blunt's Mary Poppins returning to the Banks' residence on 17 Cherry Tree Lane during the Great Slump. The chaotic household now sees a grown-up Michael Banks (played by Ben Whishaw) raising his three young children, with help from his sister Jane (Emily Mortimer). While the Banks' family home maintains the same address, the famous London property isn't a replica of its predecessor. Instead Oscar-winning production designer John Myhre focused on making the 2018 version less posh and more kid-friendly.
