MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Disney has released the first teaser trailer for its updated version of Pete's Dragon and it looks decidedly different than the movie originally released in 1977.

The original film was a live-action film with a giant green cartoon dragon. The 2016 remake is also a live-action film with a CGI dragon. It features Bryce Dallas Howard, Robert Redford and Oakes Fegley, who plays Pete.

Pete is an orphan with a possibly imaginary dragon for a best friend.
