The first glimpse of Mathilde: the musical He is already here. The classic imagined by Roald Dahl will have a new version with which Netflix intends to dominate the holiday season. Here we present the details.
Synopsis
Matilda Wormwood is a gifted girl whose intelligence far exceeds that of her uneducated family. Undoubtedly, this fact makes her feel really isolated in her house when she perceives that she is a misunderstood person and lacks affection from those close to her, who do not understand why the girl has such intellectual qualities. .
However, his life changes dramatically when he enters school. There she discovers her own special abilities and also forms a bond with a sensitive teacher, Mrs. Jennifer Honey, who will devote all her efforts to making the protagonist a girl of even greater potential.
Casting
Although this version of Mathilde is based on the multi-award winning musical that's been around for a decade, comparisons will be drawn to the 1996 film. In the title role we have Alisha Weir, who gets her first major character with this production. The iconic Agatha Trunchbull, better known as Tronchatoro, will be played by Emma Stone (cruel), while Miss Honey will present the performance of Lashana Lynch (Captain Marvel in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness). This last signature was not very well received by the public and sparked controversy on social networks. Fortunately, the actress usually looks at other parameters when choosing her characters, as she commented for United Kingdom:
“As a black woman from London and an immigrant, I will never feel comfortable choosing a role that challenges my culture. I took on the responsibility of making sure that my generation and those who come after me know that there was a time when something happened for the first time. »
For her part, Andrea Riseborough (oversight) and Stephen Graham will play the protagonist's estranged parents.
What will we see in the musical version of Mathilde?
The film was directed by Matthew Warchus, who has extensive acting experience. In order not to lose the magic of the musical work, the writer Dennis Kelly and the composer Tim Minchin, creators of the theatrical version, took on the task of writing a new musical number for this adaptation, so it will not be not just a copy of what millions of people have already seen.
Based on what little we know so far, and how Netflix has adapted other classics, we should expect some changes to the story. But also a much friendlier rhythm for all families, as well as a great show for the musical numbers.
Mathilde: the musical It arrives on Netflix on December 2. You can see the first trailer below.
Juan José Cruz I am one of those who have always defended Robert Pattinson as Batman and I can see the same movie in the cinema up to 7 times. My guilty pleasure? Low budget horror movies.
