Matilda Lawler Role On Flora & Ulysses

Matilda was only 12 and had only 3 acting credits and she had already landed herself a big role. Disney+’s Flora & Ulysses was a family-friendly superhero movie with a lot of warmth.

In the movie, Matilda plays the titular Flora Buckman who finds a superhero squirrel and names him Ulysses. The movie is the tale of the misadventures of Flora and Ulysses.

Apart from Matilda, the movie is full of other high-profile stars. Alyson Hannigan plays Flora’s mother, Ben Schwartz plays her father and Danny Pudi plays the villain, Miller.

Upon the release of the movie on 19 February 2021, Matilda’s performance was praised by critics. She was energetic and succinct with her expressions, her comic timing was perfect and it never feels like while they were filming the movie she had only one acting credit.

In an interview, Matilda said that she found acting with either a rat or nothing at all (Ulysses the squirrel was mostly VFX) very challenging. Still, it was a learning experience and she did incredibly well.
