While there is still quite a while to wait until the film finally hits the big screen, a brand new teaser poster has been unveiled - this is a great piece of artwork.

It is not that long since we saw Spielberg in the director's chair for Bridge of Spies but this is his first children's film since The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn back in 2011.

The BFG sees Spielberg reunite with writer Melissa Mathison - who penned the screenplay for E.T back in 1982 - as she has adapted Dahl's much-loved book into a script.

The movie will also see the director reunite with Bridge of Spies actor mark Rylance, as he is set to take on the title role in the film. Rylance will be joined by Rebecca Hall, Bill Hader, Ólafur Darri Ólafsson, and Penelope Wilton.

We will also be introduced to the acting talents of Ruby Barnhill, who will take on the role of Sophie. This is the first film role of her acting career.

The BFG is the exciting tale of a young London girl and the mysterious Giant who introduces her to the wonders and perils of Giant Country. It is a movie not to be missed this summer.

The BFG is released 22nd July.
