Winnie-the-Pooh floats back on screens in 2011

Winnie-the-Pooh, the honey-loving, cuddly bear beloved by generations of children, is to hit the big screen again in 2011 with another animated version of his adventures, US media said Tuesday.

Disney is hoping the new film chronicling the tales of Pooh and his friends, Christopher Robin, Piglet, Eeyore, Tigger and Owl will prove as big a hit as the last screen animation in 2005, The Hollywood Reporter said.

British author A. A. Milne’s much-cherished fictional bear has enchanted children since his original books “Winnie-the-Pooh” (1926) and “The House at Pooh Corner” (1928) were first published.

Milne named Winnie-the-Pooh after a teddy bear owned by his son — Christopher Robin Milne.
