The original is one of my fondest memories from childhood 💫🎬🎞🎥💕 #WillyWonka #CharlieAndTheChocolateFactory #RoaldDah —from Screenrant— A Roald Dahl universe of animated event series is coming to Netflix, and it will bring reimaginings of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The BFG, Matilda, and more to the streaming service. Dahl’s work continues to be a source of inspiration for filmmakers and entertainment for audiences long after it was first published by the famed author, and now it looks as though big-budget theatrical and stage adaptations won’t be the only way for fans to get their fix. The new lineup of event series may also provide a new generation of viewers their first exposure to the writer’s fantastical worlds. Netflix’s announcement is another example of the company’s desire to stake a claim to the children's television market, especially in light of Disney's upcoming streaming service. But it also points to the entertainment industry’s appetite and preference for pre-existing IP. In this case, the Roald Dahl Story Company’s holdings, which have proven profitable and enticing to audiences for decades now. And, as Netflix promises to “reimagine” and “extend” the stories, it may well contemporize them in interesting and, no doubt, contentious ways. #WomenInFilm #FemaleDirectors #Filmmaking #Directing #Filmmakers #FilmmakersLife #Screenwriting #Actors #ActorsLife #Film #MovieMaking #Directors #Screenwriters #Author #Hollywood #Movies #Love #SetLife #IndieFilm #IndieMovies #DirectorLife #WomenInHollywood #Instagood #TV https://www.instagram.com/p/BqtK5BRBcmG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=dibrl860mw60
