Pooh Gets New Girlfriend
The Walt Disney Co. is planning a new Winnie the Pooh television series for 2007, which will introduce a new character, an as-yet-unnamed 6-year-old girl, in place of a young boy, Christopher Robin, the Reuters news service reported.
A Disney spokeswoman told Reuters that the new character "is not a replacement for Christopher Robin" and added that the role of the character based on author A.A. Milne's son in the upcoming series is still to be determined, although it will not be central.
The girl will be the star of the series as she moves next door to the beloved characters created by the English author about 80 years ago: Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, Eeyore, Kanga and Roo, plus a new character, Lumpy, introduced in a recent Pooh movie.
A 22-minute pilot was produced and tested worldwide in focus groups of preschoolers and parents, all to very positive feedback, the spokeswoman told Reuters.
The series will be produced by Disney Television Animation and is scheduled to premiere in 2007 on Disney channels around the globe.
In a totally different subject- Narnia was absolutely gorgeous, though I agree with most people that Goblet of Fire is way better.
