From the world of Wonder, which sparked a movement to "choose kind," comes the inspirational next chapter: White Bird. Struggling to fit in at his new school after being expelled for his treatment of Auggie Pullman, Julian (Bryce Gheisar) is visited by his grandmother (Helen Mirren) and is transformed by the compassionate and heroic story of her attempts to escape Nazi-occupied France during WWII. From the director of Finding Neverland, White Bird reminds us to be brave and choose kind.
"White Bird, previously titled simply Wonder 2, is a film that partly continues the story we know of the young boy with physical disabilities played by Jacob Tremblay. Emphasis on "partly," as the film doesn’t delve into that same story but into a parallel one: through a boy (Orlando Schwerdt) who bullied Tremblay's character, we learn about his grandmother’s youth (Helen Mirren) as she attempted to escape Nazi-occupied France during World War II. A new story of resilience, but one that diverges greatly from Wonder, which may disappoint fans of the first film."
