The main section of the film’s action – which has actually been brought forward to 1947 (a significant change from the original novel) – follows Mary as she discovers her sickly cousin, Colin, who has been shut away in a separate wing of the house for years.

“Together, these two damaged, slightly misfit children heal each other through their discovery of a wondrous secret garden, lost in the grounds of Misselthwaite Manor. A magical place of adventure that will change their lives forever,” reads the film’s official synopsis.

As we see in the film’s first trailer, the remake will star Colin Firth and Julie Walters as Archibald Crane and Mrs Medlock (Crane’s head servant) respectively. The cast also features Dixie Egerickx as Mary and Edan Hayhurst as Colin.

The film is set to hit screens in the UK on 17 April 2020.
