Original “Mary Poppins” stars Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke have been asked to appear in the upcoming sequel “Mary Poppins Returns” says E! Online.
The new film, set to star Emily Blunt, is set in Depression-era London twenty years later and sees Poppins return to help a now grown-up Jane and Michael Banks find meaning to their lives again after a tragedy.
Joining Blunt (as Poppins) are Meryl Streep and Lin-Manuel Miranda.
No word on who Andrews and Van Dyke would play in the film but it’s likely they’d be reprising their characters from the earlier film.
Rob Marshall (“Chicago”) is at the helm of the new movie.
