The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar and Three More Trailer Released! (and a mini Gallery)
Readers who know Roald Dahl’s works, may well wonder why The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar and Three More is not Six. While we don’t have the answers, this adaptation is aiming to please in other fronts!
There’s many more books about this character for newcomers to take delight in! Available to purchase on Amazon USA.
Coming to Netflix March 15th, 2024
Coming soon is The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar and Three More, an anthology series based on the award winning series of books from Roald Dahl. And in what the trailer released recently reveals is that all that trademark style that defines Wes Anderson‘s works will permeate every frame, and this series may well be his magnum opus!
After this filmmaker won an Oscar with the short of the same name, he said in an official press release, “If I could have been there, I (along with Steven Rales) would have said “Thank you” to: the family of Roald Dahl; the team at Netflix; our cast and crew; and also: if i had not met Owen Wilson in a corridor at the University of Texas between classes when I was 18 years old, I would certainly not be receiving this award tonight–but unfortunately Steven and I are in Germany and we start shooting our new movie early tomorrow morning, so I did not actually receive the award or get a chance to say any of that.”
This expanded version stars Benedict Cumberbatch who plays the lead character who has clairvoyant abilities, allowing him to cheat at gambling along with other things.
Regarding the anthology, he further added, “It was a special pleasure to (extremely faithfully) adapt four of Roald Dahl’s marvellous short stories. I am delighted to present them now as an ANTHOLOGY — also featuring an original song by Jarvis Cocker: “Roald Dahl’s Rules For Being a Fiction Writer.”
