Simply 11 days in the past, Warner Bros. introduced the beginning of manufacturing on Wonka, a prequel concerning the lifetime of the younger Willy Wonka, certainly one of fiction’s nice lovers about sweet and torturing babies for kicks. Timothée Chalamet performs the younger Wonka.
Lower than two weeks later, we’ve already received our first photograph of Chalamet as Wonka. Chalamet himself posted it on his official Twitter account. Test it out:
The Wonka forged additionally contains Rowan Atkinson, Mathew Baynton, Jim Carter, Olivia Colman, Sally Hawkins, and Keegan-Michael Key. The movie is directed by Paul King, who made each of the extraordinarily charming live-action Paddincton movies. (King co-wrote the Wonka screenplay with Simon Farnaby.)
That is the third movie concerning the lifetime of Willy Wonka, the character initially created by writer Roald Dahl in 1964’s Charlie and the Chocolate Manufacturing unit. In 1971, Gene Wilder performed Wonka in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Manufacturing unit. In 2005, Tim Burton made his personal Charlie and the Chocolate Manufacturing unit with Johnny Depp within the lead position. Chalamet’s model, at the very least on this one image, appears to be like nearer to Wilder’s Wonka than Depp’s. Songs for the movie are being written by The Divine Comedy’s Neil Hannon.
Whereas Wonka is a prequel, Burton’s Charlie and the Chocolate Manufacturing unit provided its personal origin story for the character. (It concerned his father, who was a dentist, performed by Christopher Lee.) So this film will presumably supply a unique model of that story. No phrase on whether or not the Oompa Loompas are concerned but. Wonka is scheduled to open in theaters on March 17, 2023.
