At the center of the story is the Grand Witch (Anne Hathaway), the most beautiful and scariest witch in the world, who reveals that she has a tremendous secret plan.

When the Great Witch turns the boy into a mouse, the story takes an unexpected turn, involving witches from all over the world.

The world of Roald Dahl, loved all over the world

What do you think of when you hear Roald Dahl? Some people are overflowing with feelings for the books they read in their childhood and their movie versions (such as `` Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and the Chocolate Factory'' (2005), `` Fantastic Mr. Fox '' (2009), and ``Giant Peach '' (1996)). Some people like his novels for adults, as well as the taste of his works such as `` You Only Live Twice '' (1967) and `` Chitty Chitty Bang Bang '' (1968), which demonstrated his skills as a screenwriter.
