Clifford The Big Red Dog has delighted young readers for decades in his famous book series, but now Clifford and Emily Elizabeth will be jumping to the big screen next year. The movie’s first teaser premiered today that shows Clifford in all his ten-foot tall glory.
The movie adaptation will follow the story of Emily Elizabeth (played by actress Darby Camp from Big Little Lies) and how she came into adopting Clifford. The film will also star John Cleese, comedian Jack Whitehall, and Sienna Guillory.
Since it’s a year away, there’s not a lot of the movie shown in the teaser itself. It’s unknown at present time if he’ll have a human voice or of some kind; in the original PBS animated program, Clifford was voiced by late comic actor John Ritter.
Directed by Walt Becker (Alvin and the Chipmunks: Road Chip), Clifford The Big Red Dog hits theaters on November 5, 2021.
