In 1958, the same tale was adapted for TV by none other than Alfred Hitchcock, in an episode of anthology series Alfred Hitchcock Presents. And, running for the same duration, Poison dates back to 1950, focusing on a man finding a venomous snake. Only The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar has scored a trailer so far - and it's the longest of the quartet. Running for 17 minutes, The Swan also takes inspiration from a tale from the same book, this time about a small and smart boy being bullied.Ĭlocking in at 17 minutes as well, The Ratcatcher adapts a lesser-known story of the same name - not from the same text this time - which is unsurprisingly about a rodent exterminator. Fingers crossed for more line readings that are so completely perfect that they're unforgettable. In glorious news for The Grand Budapest Hotel fans, Ralph Fiennes ( The Menu) also reteams with the director.

Stepping in front of the camera for Anderson: Cumberbatch, Dev Patel ( The Green Knight), Ben Kingsley ( Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings), Richard Ayoade ( The Souvenir: Part II) and Rupert Friend ( Asteroid City). A master clockmaker (Abraham Sofaer) who escaped Nazi Germany refuses to allow his granddaughter (Anne Helm) to wed. And, Poison will wrap up this Anderson-meets-Dahl frenzy on Saturday, September 30.Īll four shorts not only stem from Dahl's pen originally, but cycle through a few core cast members, all of which play multiple roles. Next comes The Ratcatcher on Friday, September 29. The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar comes from one of the seven tales in Dahl's 1977 book The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar and Six More - and, for Netflix, it'll have three other brand-new shorts for company. The day after it arrives, The Swan will also drop on the streaming service on Thursday, September 28. The film tells of a wealthy man who is so fond of wagering that he comes up with a crafty plan - after discovering a guru who can see without using his eyes, he decides to learn to the same to cheat while having a bet. In the interim, the platform has released a sneak peek at what's in store.
