It's very much based on the Broadway/West End musical version of Matilda, so will be very different from the Danny DeVito film. If you've seen the stage version, it is much closer aligned to that. Including calling it 'Chokey' (which is more of the British way of saying it). I've seen the stage version a few times and I thought this elevated it. But if I was comparing it to the '96 film, I would probably not love it as much.

Yeah, I think that's the best way to think about them, if you compare them, then it won't make much sense at all.
