Actress Rudolph will play Matilda.
 
Co-directed by Fergal Reilly and Clay Kaytis and co-produced by John Cohen and Catherine Winder, the film will debut in US July 1, 2016. 
 
"I'm extremely proud of the cast. Not only do we have Jason, Josh, Danny, Bill, Maya and Peter bringing these characters to life, but they're surrounded by an all-star ensemble of emerging comedic talent - these are some of the funniest people out there today, and we're thrilled to have them all on board," Cohen said in a statement.
