The Duchess of Cornwall is reading for a good cause.
Camilla Parker-Bowles joined Taika Waititi’s reading of Roald Dahl’s “James and the Giant Peach” on Wednesday, alongside Lupita Nyong’o and Josh Gad. The 72-year-old royal played The Ship’s Captain in her first-ever character role.
“Holy cats! Send a message to the Queen at once!” she read from the iconic children’s book. “The country must be warned!”
The Roald Dahl’s Story Company has been putting on the star-studded reading to support charities impacted by COVID-19, including Partners in Health and Roald Dahl’s Marvellous Children’s charity.
“I hope this campaign will raise vital funds to support those most in need at this very challenging time – as well as helping families and children currently in lockdown to find a moment of comfort through the joy of reading,” she said in a rare statement.
Other celebrities who have participated already included Meryl Streep, Liam and Chris Hemsworth and Eddie Redmayne.
