Other quick snapshots show swarms of kids wearing school uniforms, singing and dancing through the halls as Matilda joins in. Oscar winner Emma Thompson is starring as Miss Trunchbull in the Netflix musical adaption of Roald Dahl’s 1988 book “Matilda.” DAN SMITH/NETFLIX Emma Thompson looked unrecognizable as the mean headmistress of Crunchem Hall. The “Love Actually” star dons a tight gray and white bun, a green trench dress, a medley of gadgets and a scowl. “This school is full of rebels,” Thompson shrills in the teaser. Trunchbull is the mean, old Crunchem Hall headmaster who is abusive toward a bright, young girl, Matilda (played by Alisha Weir). Warchus also returns to direct the silver screen adaption of the show. The rock musical is in turn based on the Tony-winning project directed by Matthew Warchus and written by Dennis Kelly.
