If Walt Disney teaches us anything, it's that sometimes all it takes is a little bit of hope, wishing and - maybe every once in awhile - a pinch of magic for something spectacular to happen in our lives. All this is promised to us by its latest heartwarming movie 'The Odd Life of Timothy Green,' starring Jennifer Garner.

The actress shared the cute new trailer with the folks at MSN, providing a look at the cast of family favorites like Joel Edgerton, CJ Adams, Dianne Wiest, Common, Rosemarie DeWitt, and Ron Livingston.

Directed by Peter Hedges, 'The Odd Life of Timothy Green' is an inspiring, magical story about the happily married Cindy and Jim Green (Garner and Edgerton), who - in their struggles to start a family - can only dream about what their child would be like. When young Timothy (Adams) shows up on their doorstep one stormy night, Cindy, Jim and their small town of Stanleyville learn that sometimes the unexpected can bring some of life’s greatest gifts.

August is usually considered to be one of the dull months of the movie season, but it's always nice to see something like 'The Odd Life of Timothy Green' in the mix. It looks like a delightful little film that will definitely give plenty of audience members a break from the monstrous tent pole action movies.

Watch the new trailer below for 'The Odd Life of Timothy Green,' and keep an eye out for its theatrical release on August 15, 2012.
