The world of Roald Dahl’s Matilda has always swept the imagination of readers, and the 2010 award-winning musical further expanded this world on stage, making people believe in the power of dreams. Netflix’s cinematic adaptation promises to take this legacy forward, with a powerful cast including Lashana Lynch and Emma Thompson. The trailer for Roald Dahl’s Matilda the Musical promises to build on something existing while retaining novelty, with songs that retain the core of the musical while sounding just as fresh. Set to premiere in select theatres in December, it is quite fitting that this film hits Netflix on Christmas!
