Matilda Wormwood is a little girl with big curiosity, a sharp mind and a vivid imagination – and the worst parents in the world. Sent to school at Crunchem Hall, she is befriended by the inspirational teacher Miss Honey (Lashana Lynch), but the school itself is an ominous and oppressive place led by Miss Trunchbull. Filled with an overwhelming sense of justice, Matilda dares to take a stand for what is right and teach Trunchbull a lesson she won’t forget.
