Dame Emma Thompson was reunited with her screen nemesis on Wednesday afternoon as the cast of Matilda: The Musical gathered for a photocall in London.
The celebrated actress plays the tyrannical headmistress Miss Agatha Trunchbull in the latest adaptation of Roald Dahl’s popular children’s novel, alongside Alisha Weir as the titular schoolgirl Matilda Wormwood.
But their on-screen animosity was brushed aside when the co-stars hugged each other warmly as they posed for photographers at the Mayfair Hotel during this year’s BFI Film Festival.
