Behind-the-scenes photos of new Mary Poppins film

The cast of the highly anticipated Mary Poppins Returns were spotted filming scenes in London late light night. Scroll through the gallery above to take a look at the photos. 

First-look photos show Emily Blunt, who will play the nanny, outside Buckingham Palace surrounded by chimney sweeps.

Written by Life of Pi's David Magee, Mary Poppins Returns will follow the Banks children more than 20 years after the events of the original Disney classic in 1930s London. Jane and Michael are all grown up with families of their own.

Blunt is joined by a star-studded cast in Rob Marshall's reboot. Ben Whishaw and Emily Mortimer will play the older versions of Jane and Michael Banks. Colin Firth will play William Weatherall Wilkins, the boss of the Fidelity Fiduciary Bank. Julie Walters has signed on as loyal housekeeper Ellen and Meryl Streep as Mary Poppins' cousin Topsy.

 Mary Poppins Returns will arrive in cinemas December 2018.
