“Oh, let’s go fly a kite, Up to the highest height!” If you now have that song stuck in your head, oops. Disney’s Mary Poppins, a film of beauty, will air ABC this coming December 12.
Not only will the film be broadcast on ABC for the first time in 13 years, but audience members will have the chance to see exclusive archived items. As a part of the “The Wonderful World of Disney” series, Dick Van Dyke himself alongside the Target dog, Bullseye, will be sharing a look at the film’s props and more.
These segments will run throughout the night’s presentation of the film. According to ABC, the presentation “takes viewers on a magical journey into Disney’s Archives where they can spot treasures, including iconic props from ‘Mary Poppins’ and other Disney favorites, and he shares insights about a movie that continues to delight generations of families.”
Below are a few stills, courtesy of ABC. Will you be tuning in?
