Guillermo del Toro to direct stop motion Pinocchio for Netflix

Guillermo del Toro is making his animated feature film directorial debut at Netflix with his lifelong passion project, Pinocchio, which he will also write and produce as a stop motion musical. Pinocchio will be del Toro’s first feature film since The Shape of Water, which won four Academy Awards last year, including for Best Director and Best Picture.
