    The BFG is no ordinary bone-crunching giant. He is far too nice and jumbly. It's lucky for Sophie that he is. Had she been carried off in the middle of the night by the Bloodbottler, or any of the other giants—rather than the BFG—she would have soon become breakfast. When Sophie hears that the giants are flush-bunking off to England to swollomp a few nice little chiddlers, she decides she must stop them once and for all. And the BFG is going to help her!

TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Final produced screenplay by Melissa Mathison prior to her death on November 4, 2015. This movie is dedicated to her as a tribute. The closing credits dedication reads: "FOR OUR MELISSA".

This movie had been in development for almost twenty-five years.

Producer and director Steven Spielberg tried to convince Gene Wilder to make an appearance in this movie, but Wilder declined. Wilder played the title character in Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971), also based on a Roald Dahl book. Wilder died a month after this movie's release on August 29, 2016.

This marked the reunion of producer and director Steven Spielberg and screenwriter Melissa Mathison, following their celebrated collaboration on E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982).

John Williams returned to score this movie. He had not worked on Steven Spielberg's previous movie Bridge of Spies (2015). Only two other times in forty-two years have the pair not worked together on a theatrical movie.
