Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio – Interview with Gregory Mann

There is something special about the latest adaptation of this classic fairy tale. Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio is now streaming on Netflix and it should not be missed. You’re in for adventure, wonder and a beautiful story that is sure to tug on your heart strings. I sat down with the voice of Pinocchio himself, Gregory Mann and he had great advice, insight and some silly moments from the film to share!

About The Movie 

Academy Award®-winning director Guillermo del Toro and award winning, stop-motion legend Mark Gustafson reimagine the classic Carlo Collodi tale of the fabled wooden boy with a whimsical tour de force that finds Pinocchio on an enchanted adventure that transcends worlds and reveals the life-giving power of love.

Interview with Gregory Mann

My Favorite Quotes from the Film

I’ll try my best, and that’s the best anyone can do.

May you rise with the sun and wander the earth… and bring joy and company to that poor heart broken man.

Fill his days with light, so that he may never be alone.

The one thing that makes human life precious and meaningful, you see, is how brief it is.

Life can bring great suffering. And eternal life can bring eternal suffering.

You never know how long you have with someone until they are gone.

You may be boys, but you have the hearts of men.

May you rise with the son and wander the earth. Be his son. Fill his days with light, so he’ll never be alone.

Be exactly who you are. I love you exactly as you are.

Life is such a wonderful gift.

He ventured into the world. And the world, I believe, embraced him back.

In true Guillermo del Toro’s fashion, this movie has a dark undertone to this fairytale film. It’s fresh and the stop-motion animation style is so captivating on screen, the story telling fits it perfectly. It is moving to see the relationship between father and son, love and loss and what it means to be yourself. Gregory gave Pinocchio his voice and vibrance. He brings the awe and wonder of childhood to his character and it makes you love Pinocchio instantly.

Come along with me to the learn about social media Come along with me to the learn about social media safety for teens at the @instagram Screen Smart Event! 📲✨

Instagram is making it easier for parents to feel confident about their teens’ online experiences with Teen Accounts. The Teen Accounts have built-in protections that limit who can contact them, what content they see, and how they spend their time.

Parents, set the right boundaries for your family with: 
✅ Automatic safety settings
🎬 PG-13 guidance for content 
🌙 Sleep Mode + other screen time tools
🤝 Parental approval for changes
💡 Parent-to-Parent Tip: Keep the conversation open. Ask your teen what they’re seeing online, connection and curiosity go a long way!

Online safety is so important to me as a mom. I am happy to partner with @instagram & @meta to help share this info with other parents! Learn more about Instagram’s family tools at Meta’s Family Center- familycenter.meta.com
