So this looks like it will be going the way of "The Irishman" and be a streaming release in the US rather than a theatrical release."

Why is “the Irishman” the example you come up with?

Because "The Irishman", for the majority of us, is only available for viewing as a streaming release on Netflix ... only playing in a handful of actual theaters to qualify for awards consideration.

Emma Stone and Ralph Fiennes are in talks for Honey and Trunchbull. Barely know Ralph, but Emma would be great if she's a soprano.

Well to be fair, he hasn’t played the part in nearly a decade now.

She's like 6 months pregnant right now.

Great casting! I hope this happens but like the Wicked movie, Im not holding my breath.

Oh, Jodie would be a BLAST!

Globefan said: "Maybe Mara Wilson can play Mrs. Wormwood"

Didn’t she quit from acting, plus can she sing?



if Matthew warchus does a good job adapting this to film, I think he should get a shot at adapting his lord of the rings to film.
