Synopsis

Emma Thompson returns as the eponymous magical governess alongside an all-star cast that includes Maggie Gyllenhaal (STRANGER THAN FICTION), Rhys Ifans (NOTTING HILL), Ralph Fiennes (SCHINDLER’S LIST) and Maggie Smith (SISTER ACT). The second instalment from the popular franchise, this new adventure sees Nanny McPhee employing her supernatural skills to help a young mother (Maggie Gyllenahall) taking care of her unruly kids while her husband (Ewan McGregor) is courageously fighting for Britain during World War II. Based on the best-selling novel series NURSE MATILDA by Christianna Brand, NANNY MCPHEE AND THE BIG BANG has been scripted by versatile Thompson, who also penned the first chapter of the saga. The not-so-baddy-after-all in charge is this time played by an entertainingly histrionic Rhys Ifans.
