Bruce Bogtrotter was featured in one of Matilda’s most memorable scenes, so what happened to actor Jimmy Karz after the film? In the 1996 hit, Bruce steals a piece of cake from the school’s headmistress Ms. Trunchbull and as punishment, is forced to eat an entire cake in front of the class until he’s too sick to continue. With a few words of encouragement from Matilda (Mara Wilson), he’s able to polish off the whole cake and complete the challenge, eventually becoming one of her friends and co-conspirators in getting revenge against Ms. Trunchbull for years of cruelty.
