Netflix acquired the Roald Dahl Story Company in September 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. and Mrs. Twit are the meanest, smelliest, nastiest people in the world who also happen to own and operate the most disgusting, most dangerous, most idiotic amusement park in the world, Twitlandia. But when the Twits rise to power in their town, two brave orphans and a family of magical animals are forced to become as tricky as the Twits in order to save the city. A hysterically funny, wild ride of a film (chock-full of the Twits&#8217; beloved tricks-from the Wormy Spaghetti to the Dreaded Shrinks), The Twits is also a story for our times, about the never-ending battle between cruelty and empathy.<\/p>\n<p>Director: Phil Johnston<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Quote from writer\/director Phil Johnson: &#8220;I&#8217;ve always been attracted to reprehensible characters. I don&#8217;t know what this says about me, and I really don&#8217;t want to look into it. Point is, The Twits was my favorite book when I was a kid. I love the Twits and their terrible tricks. I love that they lack self-awareness and personal hygiene and any inkling of human decency. And I love this movie because it reminds us that twits like the Twits, whose default emotions are anger and vengeance, can&#8217;t be allowed to win in our world.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Co-Directors: Katie Shanahan, Todd Demong<\/p><div id=\"morty-3026161024\" class=\"morty-content_2\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>Writers: Phil Johnston (Zootopia, Wreck-It Ralph), Meg Favreau<\/p>\n<p>Produced by: Phil Johnston, Maggie Malone<\/p>\n<p>Co-Producer: Daisy West<\/p>\n<p>Animation by: Jellyfish Pictures (The Boss Baby, The Bad Guys)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Twits marks the first screen adaptation based on the Roald Dahl book of the same name.
