The film, which is directed by David Lowery (\u201cAin\u2019t Them Bodies Saints\u201d), is written by Lowery &amp; Toby Halbrooks based on a story by Seton I. Miller and S.S. Field and produced by Jim Whitaker, p.g.a. (\u201cThe Finest Hours,\u201d \u201cFriday Night Lights\u201d), with Barrie M. Osborne (\u201cThe Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring,\u201d \u201cThe Great Gatsby\u201d) serving as executive producer.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For years, old wood carver Mr. Meacham (Robert Redford) has delighted local children with his tales of the fierce dragon that resides deep in the woods of the Pacific Northwest. To his daughter, Grace (Bryce Dallas Howard), who works as a forest ranger, these stories are little more than tall tales\u2026until she meets Pete (Oakes Fegley). Pete is a mysterious 10-year-old with no family and no home who claims to live in the woods with a giant, green dragon named Elliott. And from Pete\u2019s descriptions, Elliott seems remarkably similar to the dragon from Mr. Meacham\u2019s stories. With the help of Natalie (Oona Laurence), an 11-year-old girl whose father Jack (Wes Bentley) owns the local lumber mill, Grace sets out to determine where Pete came from, where he belongs, and the truth about this dragon. Disney\u2019s \u201cPete\u2019s Dragon\u201d opens in U.S. theaters on August 12, 2016.<\/p>\n<p>Like us on Facebook:&nbsp;<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DisneyPetesDragon\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DisneyPetesDragon<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Follow us on<\/p>\n<p>Twitter:&nbsp;<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/disneypetes\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/disneypetes<\/a>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Instagram:&nbsp;<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/disneypetesdragon\/\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/disneypetesdragon\/<\/a>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"linkwithin_hook\" id=\"https:\/\/morefrommom.com\/?p=3260\"><\/div><script>\n<!-- \/\/LinkWithinCodeStart\nvar linkwithin_site_id = 1406085;\nvar linkwithin_div_class = \"linkwithin_hook\";\n\/\/LinkWithinCodeEnd -->\n<\/script>\n<script src=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/widget.js\"><\/script>\n<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/\"><img src=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/pixel.png\" alt=\"Related Posts Plugin for WordPress, Blogger...\" style=\"border: 0\" \/><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Disney\u2019s PETE&#8217;S DRAGON, a reimagining of the studio\u2019s cherished family film about the adventures of a boy named Pete and his best friend Elliott, who just so happens to be a dragon.
