Walt Disney Pictures Tinker Bell
October 28, 2008
For the first time ever, one of Disney’s most beloved and classic characters will speak in
Tinker Bell, a brand-new, original film coming to DVD and Blu-ray® disc on October 28, 2008.Produced by DisneyToon Studios, Tinker Bell opens the doors to the amazing, enchanting world of Pixie Hollow, home to the gorgeous and glittering Disney Fairies. With some of Hollywood’s most talented actors lending their voices to the cast, Tinker Bell is sure to delight fans of the world’s most famous fairy.
In this film, we learn of Tinker Bell’s origin: How she’s born, how she comes to Pixie Hollow and how she finds her new friends.
We also learn that every fairy is born with a special talent, whether it’s making flowers grow, giving fireflies their light or tracing beautiful patterns into a winter morning’s frost. Peter Pan’s beloved sidekick discovers her talent is tinkering, and thus is given her name – Tinker Bell!
As it turns out, Tinker Bell has arrived at a really important time in Pixie Hollow. The fairies are preparing to bring Spring to the mainland. The mainland is where us humans live. The more Tink hears about how fantastic the mainland will be, the more she looks forward to going…until she learns that tinkers don’t get to go to the mainland- their job is to fix things for the other fairies in Pixie Hollow.
Deciding that being a tinker fairy isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, stubborn Tink begs her new friends Rosetta, Silvermist, Fawn and Iridessa to teach her their talents so she can join them, but her misguided attempts to switch her talent lead to disaster, destroying the other fairies’ preparations for Spring! Tink is ready to leave Pixie Hollow in disgrace when she learns that the key to solving her problems lies in her unique tinker abilities…and discovers that when she’s true to herself, magical things can happen.
Mae Whitman (Independence Day, One Fine Day) gives Tinker Bell her first true voice, and Emmy® and Golden Globe® Award winner America Ferrera (Ugly Betty) provides the voice of the mischievous Fawn, an animal fairy. Five-time Image Award honoree Raven-Symoné (College Road Trip) fills the illuminating role of Iridessa, a light fairy; Tony® Award winner Kristin Chenoweth (Pushing Daisies) offers the elegant tones of Rosetta, a garden fairy; and two-time SAG Awardee Lucy Liu (Dirty Sexy Money) plays Silvermist, an endearing water fairy. In addition, singer-songwriter Jesse McCartney lends his voice to Terence, keeper of the pixie dust, and Academy Award® winning actress Anjelica Huston (Prizzi’s Honor) reigns over Pixie Hollow as the voice of Queen Clarion.
Tinker Bell is the first in a series of films featuring the Disney Fairies. The Disney Fairies represent a major initiative across The Walt Disney Company being incorporated into divisions such as Disney Consumer Products, Disney Publishing, Disney Interactive Studios, Disney on Ice, Disney Parks and Resorts, Disney Online and more.
