Last Updated on: January 20th, 2024

Who is Mary?

In Disney’s adaptation of Roald Dahl’s beloved children’s book “The BFG” (short for “The Big Friendly Giant”), Mary is a minor character. The film, directed by Steven Spielberg and released in 2016, follows the story of a young orphan named Sophie who befriends a gentle giant.

In the film, Mary, played by Rebecca Hall, is one of the caretakers at the orphanage where Sophie lives. She is a kind and caring figure who looks after the children at the orphanage. Mary’s character, while not a central figure in the story, provides a glimpse into Sophie’s life before she encounters the BFG.

Mary’s role in the film is to show the contrast between Sophie’s life at the orphanage and her adventures with the BFG. After Sophie is taken to Giant Country by the BFG, she leaves behind the familiar world of the orphanage, including caring figures like Mary, to embark on a magical and heartwarming journey with her new giant friend.
