Danny DeVito is revealing he has plans to reunite with his Matilda co-star Mara Wilson for a concert event that would see them narrating the 1996 film.
“Mara and I were planning to perform Matilda live with the New Jersey Philharmonic Orchestra just before the strike hit,” DeVito told The Messenger about the reunion that was postponed due to the SAG-AFTRA strike. “We had it all set, but, after the strike hit, we couldn’t proceed because it would be seen as a promotion for a movie.”
He continued, “However, we’re still planning to do that. We’re going to watch the movie with David Newman’s score and try to do it sometime soon, as it seems the strike may be coming to an end — I hope!”
DeVito directed the film based on the Roald Dahl children’s book about a six-year-old genius who develops telekinetic powers and who is neglected by her family.
The Matilda in Concert event had been originally scheduled for Sep. 9 at the State Theatre New Jersey but was postponed due to the actors’ strike.
“Everyone involved in this production was very much looking forward to performing together this September, and we are disappointed to have to postpone it, but we look forward to holding the performance on a future date once the strike has concluded,” reads the statement on the theater’s website.
The website only mentioned DeVito as the narrator of the film but according to the actor, Wilson also seemingly going to make an appearance.
