Netflix’s Matilda Movie Musical to Open BFI London Film Festival

Film & TV News Netflix’s Matilda Movie Musical to Open BFI London Film Festival

The adaptation of the Tony- and Olivier-winning production stars newcomer Alisha Weir as Matilda and Emma Thompson as Mrs. Trunchbull.

Netflix’s screen adaptation of Dennis Kelly and Tim Minchin‘s Matilda The Musical will open the 66th BFI London Film Festival with an October 5 screening at the Southbank Centre in Royal Festival Hall. Filmmakers and cast are expected to be in attendance. 

The BFI premiere will be accompanied by simultaneous preview screenings at movie theatres across the U.K., all ahead of a cinema-exclusive U.K. release December 2 and the U.S. debut on Netflix expected for this holiday season.

Based on the 1988 children’s novel by Roald Dahl, the film stars Emma Thompson as Mrs. Trunchbull, Lashana Lynch as Miss Honey, Sindhu Vee as Mrs. Phelps, Stephen Graham and Andrea Riseborough as Mr. and Mrs. Wormwood, with newcomer Alisha Weir playing the title role.

Matilda The Musical follows Matilda Wormwood, a curious young girl with dodgy and absent parents, who is encouraged by her inspiring teacher Miss Honey. But, Matilda’s excitement for attending Crunchem Hall is tampered by the discovery that the school is an oppressive place led by the evil Miss Trunchbull.

“What a delight to be opening this tremendous film festival with singing, dancing, green hair and chocolate cake,” says Tony winner Matthew Warchus, who has directed the screen adaptation after helming its stage production. “It’s a real honor to be sharing this joyful and empowering tale of a little girl’s courage and compassion at such a prestigious event.”

The Tony- and Olivier-winning theatre production was adapted for the silver screen by Kelly, with original music and lyrics by Minchin. Having served as director of both the West End and Broadway productions, Tony winner Warchus returned to direct the Netflix film. Working Title’s Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner and The Roald Dahl Story Company’s Jon Finn and Luke Kelly serve as its producers. The stage musical successfully played on stages in New York City, New Zealand, Korea, Toronto, and London’s West End, where it opened in 2011 and continues to run

The 66th BFI London Film Festival will reveal its full programming September 1, utilizing the format the festival has developed since 2020 for this year’s presentation.

The Broadway production opened in 2019 and continues at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre, and three productions are running in Europe in Germany, Netherlands, and Spain. The North American tour will commence in Rhode Island this September.

Directed by Phyllida Lloyd and written by Pulitzer Prize winner Katori Hall with Frank Ketelaar and Kees Prins, the musical is choreographed by Anthony van Laast with set and costume designs by Mark Thompson, musical supervision by Nicholas Skilbeck, lighting by Bruno Poet, sound by Nevin Steinberg, projection design by Jeff Sugg, and orchestrations by Ethan Popp.

Broadway Stars March With First-Ever Playbill Pride Float in NYC Pride Parade June 26

Playbill Pride Broadway Stars March With First-Ever Playbill Pride Float in NYC Pride Parade June 26

Cast members from A Strange Loop, Moulin Rouge!, SIX: The Musical, and more will be on hand for a Broadway-themed Pride celebration.

For the first time ever, Playbill will be featured in the NYC Pride March June 26 with a special Pride float decorated with all the Pride-themed Playbill covers from the month of June and a suspended, holographic disco ball. Walking alongside the float will be cast members from Broadway’s A Strange LoopChicagoMoulin Rouge!The Music ManThe Phantom of the OperaSIX: The Musical, and Wicked, and Off-Broadway’s Titanique.

The Playbill Pride float is the culmination of Playbill’s Pride in Times Square, which gathered stage and screen stars, Broadway shows, LGBTQIA+ non-profits, special Times Square business promotions, and more June 24–25 for a weekend-long event centered around NYC Pride weekend in Times Square between 45th and 47th streets—the heart of Broadway.

“Playbill is extremely proud to take part in this celebration of the LGBTQIA+ community,” says Playbill Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Alex Birsh. “We are always honored to change our iconic yellow design to the Pride Flag colors, celebrating this expansive and important community. And this year, we are even more proud to celebrate Pride in our biggest way yet: a big party in Times Square, and our first-ever official Playbill Pride Float in the NYC Pride Parade. Playbill aims to be a leader in our community, and we look for this event to continue expanding our tradition of standing with and behind our LGBTQIA+ friends, family, and allies. Here’s to an amazing celebration with our partners, sponsors, and the entire Broadway community.”

Also on hand to march in the parade with the Playbill Pride float—which will feature Pride in Times Square sponsors ViiV, Audible, and Jeep—will be representatives from Playbill, the Times Square Alliance, and Jeep.
