This afternoon, Margot Robbie gave the world a gift: another look at Goodbye Christopher Robin, a film about the relationship between Winnie the Pooh creator A.A. Milne and his son, the real Christopher Robin. "Had the most magical time shooting this 💫," Robbie wrote. "Trust me, you don't want to miss #GoodbyeChristopherRobin 😊👌" Indeed you don't:
The new footage explores the development of the '20s book series—which was inspired by IRL Christopher and his stuffed toys—and the acclaim it garnered in a grief-stricken, post-World War I England. There is truly everything in this clip: a cute little boy, an adorable teddy bear, a love story—courtesy of Margot Robbie, who plays Christopher's mother, and Domhnall Gleeson, who plays A.A. Milne—and an abundance of sweetness. Ready or not, it will move you. Be warned though: A real life Eeyore is not present.
Goodbye Christopher Robin comes out in theaters October 13.
