A first look at the film version of Matilda the Musical<\/a> has been released, giving fans a glimpse of Dame Emma Thompson\u2019s take on the wicked Miss Trunchbull.<\/p>\n

In the new teaser trailer, which was released by Sony Pictures and Netflix on Wednesday 15th June 2022, the Oscar-winning actress is seen in action as the villainous headmistress for the first time.<\/p>\n

\u201cMatilda Wormwood. Criminals like you need a real lesson,\u201d the unrecognisable Thompson tells the child prodigy as she marches towards her, before we get a preview of Trunchbull\u2019s infamous pigtail swinging in the playground.<\/p>\n

\u201cSee if that child is still alive,\u201d she is heard barking after carrying out the cruel act.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

As well as giving fans a glimpse at the likes of Stephen Graham and Lashana Lynch in their roles, the trailer also teases the film\u2019s epic musical numbers.<\/p>\n
