The Witches - Official Trailer

Witches are real, and they are everywhere! 🐀 Watch the official trailer for #TheWitchesHBOMax streaming exclusively on HBOMax in the US on October 22!
From Oscar-winning director Robert Zemeckis (“Forrest Gump”) comes the fantasy adventure “Roald Dahl’s The Witches.” The film stars Oscar winners Anne Hathaway (“Les Misérable,” “Ocean’s 8”) and Octavia Spencer (“The Help,” “The Shape of Water”), Oscar nominee Stanley Tucci (“The Hunger Games” films, “The Lovely Bones”), with Kristin Chenoweth (TV’s “Glee” and “BoJack Horseman”) and award-winning comedy legend Chris Rock. Newcomer Jahzir Kadeem Bruno (TV’s “Atlanta”) also stars, alongside Codie-Lei Eastick (“Holmes & Watson”).
Reimagining Dahl’s beloved story for a modern audience, Zemeckis’s visually innovative film tells the darkly humorous and heartwarming tale of a young orphaned boy (Bruno) who, in late 1967, goes to live with his loving Grandma (Spencer) in the rural Alabama town of Demopolis. As the boy and his grandmother encounter some deceptively glamorous but thoroughly diabolical witches, she wisely whisks our young hero away to an opulent seaside resort. Regrettably, they arrive at precisely the same time that the world’s Grand High Witch (Hathaway) has gathered her fellow cronies from around the globe-undercover-to carry out her nefarious plans.
Based on the book by Roald Dahl, the screenplay is by Robert Zemeckis & Kenya Barris (TV’s “black-ish,” “Shaft”) and Oscar winner Guillermo del Toro (“The Shape of Water”). Zemeckis is also producing, alongside Jack Rapke, del Toro, Alfonso Cuarón and Luke Kelly. Serving as executive producers are Jacqueline Levine, Marianne Jenkins, Michael Siegel, Gideon Simeloff and Cate Adams.
Zemeckis’s behind-the-scenes team includes a roster of his frequent collaborators, including Oscar-nominated director of photography Don Burgess (“Forrest Gump”), production designer Gary Freeman, editors Jeremiah O’Driscoll and Ryan Chan, Oscar-nominated costume designer Joanna Johnston (“Allied,” “Lincoln”), and Oscar-nominated composer Alan Silvestri (“Polar Express,” “Forrest Gump”).

Anything narrated by Chris Rock is not a movie that would fit Helena. They could of made this much darker but it’s not dark enough for those kind of character performances.

[@lundholmproduction]

My oppinion as a cineast for over 50 years. Seen them all from Gish Garbo Davies to todays actresses. You need the skill of staracting like Emma Stone in Cruella. Anne Hathaway has her talent in character acting. Meryl Streep would not have been good but Glenn Close. In death becomes her Goldie Hawn was the better actress. Octavia Spencer would have been a better choice for Anne Hathaways part. She can do all from horror to comedy.

Right, this is a Roald Dahl book, leave it British ffs. The original film was so creepy

[@testeteste-fd9dg]

When I was a child, what scared me were films like Poltergeist and The Exorcist. The Witches is almost like Gremlins. It has terror that is very cartoonish, like a fairy tale. Perhaps this new version is more fun for children to watch. And if you want them to be afraid, put some horror movie on for them to watch.

[@BartAllen]

*This is exactly why the Goosebumps (2015) failed: no respect of the material, treating the audience like infants and removing dark tonality - not every child escapes nor has a happy ending, which is what the original Goosebumps and Are You Afraid of the Dark understood! Roald Dahl's The Witches is a dark tale, and so was Nicolas Roeg's 1990 adaption, though Dahl had issues with the ending - for obvious reasons that he believed it was too optimistic and betrayed his ending. Does anyone else recall the haunting portrait scene with Erica? I very much doubt there'll be a single scene in this film that'll equal the bone-chilling and utter cold nature of that one scene - and there was not one drop of blood or CGI in that scene ~ All the CGI in the world can't surpass a great script and great directing ~ Another example of this would be the first Men In Black: a rather dark film - and I'm utterly surprised it even got a PG-13 rating, due to the Bug scenes; the sequels ended up being utter comedies with no suspense, and no stakes ... This is another reason why many prefer Stephen King's IT minseries over the two recent IT films - the former being a very dark adaption instead of the Stranger Things' vibe ~*

[@johnnygallagher5718]

I heard that Ghostbusters Afterlife will have some genuinely scary moments despite it being a comedy. And Sony Television's making an upcoming reboot of the Goosebumps TV show and hopefully will be a full blown horror show like the original.
Also, the Goosebumps movie wasn't that bad in my eyes.

[@lukehilton493]

I've got a feeling 1:09 is the Erica story. But i doubt it will compare to the literal child snatching of the original and the Father's face seeing his daughter locked in the painting.

@@GoodMorning-ib8bn none of those actresses would have made sense. The GHW is supposed to be young and beautiful. Technically, Angelica Houston was a little old for the role, but she made it work, so I wouldn't want anyone older than she was when she had it.
Sarah Paulson could work age wise, but she isn't pretty enough, no offense to her. And it would be a little on the nose considering all the times she's played witches and witch-like characters already. I actually think Anne Hathaway could have worked, the more I think about it, but they needed to change basically everything else about the character.
