Emma Thompson looks unrecognizable as the tyrannical headmistress Miss Trunchbull in “Matilda the Musical,” but achieving this look was no small feat.
film on Wednesday, Thompson revealed that she spent about three and a half hours a day with the makeup and wardrobe departments as they applied extensive facial prosthetics and padding.. “There’s an actual body suit, which is to give her the heft and the muscle. And then a massive weighty underwear and pretend chest and all of that. It was a lot to walk around in.”
“I had first seen without all the makeup, and then when I did see her in the makeup, it was a bit scary,” Weir told. “But I knew that when she [opened her arms], I could come in and give her a hug. I knew that under all the makeup, there was Emma.”“Matthew got very annoyed with me for doing that,” Thompson laughed. She recalled him saying, “The children are supposed to be frightened of you and hate you. Stop hugging them.
“In between action and cut, [the children] were always brilliant, but in between those times, there’d often be quite a lot of noise,” Warchus told. “I tried various techniques like ringing a school bell or blowing a whistle. I thought I was getting a little bit Trunchbull, so in the end, we used microphones and pleaded with them to stay still.”
Meanwhile, Thompson is finishing the musical stage adaptation of “Nanny McPhee” based on the 2005 film that she wrote and starred in.
