I never saw Dolphin Tale, but with it making $95.4 million worldwide on a $37 million budget back in 2011, Warner Bros. felt it was necessary to make a sequel so back are Harry Connick Jr., Morgan Freeman, Kris Kristofferson and Ashley Judd for Dolphin Tale 2, set to hit theaters on September 9 and tonight we have the first trailer for the film.
Here’s the official synopsis:
It has been several years since young Sawyer Nelson (Gamble) and the dedicated team at the Clearwater Marine Hospital, headed by Dr. Clay Haskett (Connick, Jr.), rescued Winter. With the help of Dr. Cameron McCarthy (Freeman), who developed a unique prosthetic tail for the injured dolphin, they were able to save her life. Yet their fight is not over. Winter’s surrogate mother, the very elderly dolphin Panama, has passed away, leaving Winter without the only poolmate she has ever known. However, the loss of Panama may have even greater repercussions for Winter, who, according to USDA regulations, cannot be housed alone, as dolphins’ social behavior requires them to be paired with other dolphins. Time is running out to find a companion for her before the team at Clearwater loses their beloved Winter to another aquarium.
I’m sure this movie and its predecessor are just fine family films, but I really couldn’t care less about its existence. Give it a watch below and see if it’s up your alley.
