The Duchess of Cornwall joins a growing list of celebrities who have shared their voices to help raise money in the fight against COVID-19. The 10-episode \"James and the Giant Peach with Taika and Friends\" series features characters voiced by Cate Blanchett, Benedict Cumberbatch, Cara Delevingne, Chris and Liam Hemsworth, Mindy Kaling, Nick Kroll, Lupita Nyong'o, Sarah Paulson, Ryan Reynolds and Meryl Streep.

The series, seen in full on Dahl's official YouTube page, raises money for Partners in Health, a medical and social justice organization fighting COVID-19 and providing health care to the most vulnerable people around the world.

New episodes of the series air every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1 p.m. EST, 10 a.m. PST.
