How cute! I'm honestly pleased to hear it's animated; sounds like a good fit for a Dahl adaptation plus he doesn't have to work too much hopefully 😅

I also think it’s nice that’s not one of famous stories so he is free to make the character his own without worry about comparisons! Not that he cares to much about it after Sherlock, Khan, The Grinch and the Shakespeare plays but it would be cool that he is the one originated the role this time.
Thinking about it, his Patrick Melrose is definitive. I can’t see another adaptation of those books with other actor but it’s crazy that he wasn’t the first to play the role! That was Jake Davenport and I feel for him because apparently he owned the rights for years and wanted to adapt them but indie studios didn’t wanted to risk with such a perverse story then he thought he was too old to play young Patrick but was happy to play him in a sanitized version of Mother’s Milk. The film had a mixed reception and was quickly forgotten then years later, Hollywood or more exactly daring cable TV made a faithful version with huge stars a 40 something famous guy in the lead playing the character since his 20 without any shame! Lol

I think Louis Wain was 19 or 20 when the movie opens and he played that convincingly. I also thought 20-ish Patrick Melrose was a tiny bit of a stretch but he was so excellent in Bad News that I entirely forgave him for not being young enough. 😂

I do like how stylists' go-to for de-aging him is to fluff his hair up as high as possible, lol
