When discussing how she felt self-conscious about her dancing at the time, director Danny DeVito made sure everyone from the producers to the sound guys and even the prop team was dancing alongside her while they shot the scene. Mara explains how the viral trend has brought her joy stating, "The Matilda Challenge I think feels to me like, it feels good and it feels right and it feels fitting because it was a giant dance party that day and I love that this giant dance party is still continuing on 22 years later."
