Disney's famous character Winnie the Pooh is set to entertain kids in theaters next summer and first photos from the movie "Winnie the Pooh" have been made available for viewing pleasure. It gives a look at Pooh and friends Tigger, Rabbit, Piglet, Kanga, Roo and Eeyore. Additionally, Christopher Robin is featured in one image though he is captured from his back side.

The first big-screen Pooh adventure from Disney animation in more than 35 years, "Winnie the Pooh" will take fans back to the Hundred Acre Wood. According to the synopsis, Owl sends the whole gang on a wild quest to save Christopher Robin from an imaginary culprit. It turns out to be a very busy day for a bear who simply sets out to find some hunny.

Disney opts to maintain classic 2D format for the upcoming film instead of altering their properties with CGI or live action. Inspired by five stories from A.A. Milne's books in Disney's classic, hand-drawn art style, the Stephen J. Anderso and Don Hall-directed movie will open wide in the U.S. on July 15, 2011. Jim Cummings and Craig Ferguson are among the voice cast.
