Whatever in god’s name for? Well at least we won’t have to listen to. . .oh no. . .ohnonononono. . .shrieking violins!
Brace yourself: in the original book series by P. L. Travers, there are seven sequels to Mary Poppins. This could go on for a while.
Two words, people: Emily fucking Blunt can do whatever the fuck she wants and the studios can immediately have all of my money!!!
To be fair, Disney has been knocking it out of the park for the last decade or so. This will have not just Emily Blunt but Lin-Manuel Miranda as the Dick Van Dyke-ish type, and he may also be contributing lyrics to some of the songs. I mean, really, it sounds like they’re doing it right.
Not to mention Dick Van Dyke himself, in a new role! (And with a better British accent!) 
But not Michael, sadly. RIP.
