🎬 Matilda 2: Generation Magic (2026)
👉 Starring: Mara Wilson • Danny DeVito • Rhea Perlman
Three decades after Matilda Wormwood (Mara Wilson) was welcomed into the loving home of Miss Honey, she has become a brilliant and compassionate school principal dedicated to nurturing and protecting exceptionally gifted children. Her quiet world — surrounded by books, education, and a touch of magic — is suddenly thrown into chaos when her biological parents, Harry (Danny DeVito) and Zinnia (Rhea Perlman), unexpectedly show up at her door once again.
After years spent avoiding the authorities, the outrageous Wormwoods have returned older, noisier, and just as absurdly ridiculous as ever. This time, however, they bring an unbelievable surprise with them: Matilda’s young niece, an energetic little girl who has developed an incredibly powerful yet completely uncontrolled telekinetic gift of her own.
Mara Wilson steps back into the iconic role with the same charm, intelligence, and emotional warmth that made Matilda such a beloved character. No longer the isolated child fighting to survive in a cruel environment, she is now a strong and confident mentor determined to help a new generation learn how to understand and master extraordinary abilities.
At the same time, Danny DeVito and Rhea Perlman return effortlessly to their unforgettable roles, once again delivering their hilariously chaotic chemistry and over-the-top energy. Unsurprisingly, Harry and Zinnia quickly begin scheming to use the young girl’s magical powers as part of yet another ridiculous get-rich-fast plan.
As the Wormwoods’ reckless behavior threatens to reveal their supernatural secret to an increasingly suspicious modern society, Matilda is forced to reconnect with her own telekinetic abilities — now more powerful, precise, and refined than ever before. Determined to keep her niece safe, she must once again teach her parents a lesson they will never forget while helping a young child cope with the overwhelming burden of extraordinary gifts.
Packed with the same whimsical charm, emotional heart, laugh-out-loud physical humor, and uplifting spirit that made the 1996 classic so unforgettable, Matilda 2: Generation Magic celebrates imagination, inner courage, found family, and the enduring power of kindness and intelligence.
More than simply a nostalgic continuation, the film promises a magical new adventure that honors the soul of the original story while passing its wonder and inspiration on to an entirely new generation.
