Rise up, rotten children: the Matilda The Musical trailer is here. Roald Dahl’s beloved children’s classic is hitting screens once again, with a star-studded cast that includes Emma Thompson and Lashana Lynch.
Matilda The Musical is not only an adaptation of the book, but also the stage musical that originated in the Royal Shakespeare company and went on to win a heap of Olivier Awards on the West End and Tony Awards on Broadway. The Netflix film reunited the musical’s creative team, with Tony winner Dennis Kelly adapting the book for screen and Olivier winner Matthew Warchus returning to direct, plus the original music and lyrics from Tim Minchin.
