Walt Disney Studios has shared another special look at the upcoming Mary Poppins Returns movie, teasing fans with brand new music.
Of course, everything looks supercalifragilisticexpialidocious as Emily Blunt stars as the nanny, making her return to the Banks family at Cherry Tree Road.
The overwhelmingly charming footage shows Emily taking the lead in the new original track for the sequel, titled 'Can You Imagine That?', and comes after Disney released the official trailer last month.
The special look features whimsical cartoons and lots of dolphins adding colour and character to the big screen.

Emily's joined by Ben Whishaw and Emily Mortimer, who will be portraying grown-up Banks children Michael and Jane - the kids Mary used to care for in the original movie.
Pixie Davies, Joel Dawson and Nathanael Saleh star as Michael's children, and Lin-Manuel Miranda is Mary's close friend and London street lamplighter, Jack.
Meryl Streep will be starring as Topsy-Turvy Poppins - Mary's eccentric cousin - and her Mamma Mia co-star Colin Firth is also joining the cast as Fidelity Fiduciary Bank's William Weatherall Wilkins.
Dame Angela Lansbury will be appearing as The Balloon Lady, and Julie Walters as Ellen the housekeeper.
Emily has taken over the role of Mary from the legendary Julie Andrews, and it will be interesting to see how the actress will put her own spin on the iconic character when the movie is released in full.

Disney has opted to create a sequel rather than a remake, which will see Mary head back to the Banks' family home after Michael and his children suffer a personal tragedy.
And here's the official synopsis: "Set in 1930s London, which is the time period of the original novels by P.L. Travers. The story follows Michael (Ben Whishaw) and Jane Banks (Emily Mortimer), who are now grown up. Michael is living with his three children (Pixie Davies, Nathanael Saleh, and Joel Dawson) and housekeeper Ellen (Julie Walters), in the house on Cherry Tree Lane. After Michael has a personal loss, Mary Poppins (Emily Blunt) comes back into the lives of the Banks family. She is joined by a street lamplighter named Jack (Lin-Manuel Miranda), and an eccentric cousin named Topsy (Meryl Streep)."
Mary Poppins Returns will hit cinemas on 19th December just in time for Christmas. Splendid, splendid.
