On October 17, 2025, Netflix will release its new animated adaptation of Roald Dahl's classic children's book "The Twits." The film, co-written and directed by Phil Johnston, promises to bring the rotten, repulsive, and delightfully twisted world of the Twit family to a new generation of viewers.
The animated feature stars acclaimed actors Margo Martindale as Credenza Twit and Johnny Vegas as Jim Twit, alongside Emilia Clarke, Natalie Portman, and Jason Mantzoukas. According to Johnston, the movie expands the book's short, chaotic structure into a full-length story while staying true to Dahl's signature dark humor and slapstick chaos.
