DeVito indicated that the project was briefly paused due to industry strikes but remained in consideration, with the intent to proceed once circumstances allowed. He described the concept as watching the Matilda film with David Newman’s score and performing it as a live-narrated concert.

Mara Wilson, who portrayed Matilda in the film, has discussed returning to the Matilda legacy in various interviews, though she has been selective about public appearances since her acting hiatus. The Matilda in Concert plan would reunite the original star and DeVito in a live-format event.
