Wonka | Official Trailer • Reaction
1[Synopsis]
Wonka is an upcoming musical fantasy film directed by Paul King, who co-wrote the screenplay with Simon Farnaby. It serves as a prequel to the 1971 film Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, which in turn was based on the 1964 novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl.[3] The film stars Timothée Chalamet in the titular role of Willy Wonka, following his early days as an unusual chocolatier. Calah Lane, Keegan-Michael Key, Paterson Joseph, Matt Lucas, Mathew Baynton, Sally Hawkins, Rowan Atkinson, Jim Carter, Tom Davis, Olivia Colman and Hugh Grant appear in supporting roles.
Development began after Warner Bros. Pictures acquired the rights to the titular character in October 2016. It was reported that Warner Bros. was conducting casting auditions for the title role of the film, including Donald Glover, Ryan Gosling, and Ezra Miller, and it was revealed the film would serve as a prequel. In May 2021, Chalamet was confirmed to be playing Wonka and the supporting cast were announced in September of that year. Principal photography began in the United Kingdom in September 2021. Filming took place in Warner Bros. Studios, Leavesden in Watford, as well as Lyme Regis, Bath, St Albans and at the Rivoli Ballroom in Brockley, London. Scenes were shot in Oxford in December and February. The original songs for the film were contributed by Neil Hannon, while its original score was provided by Joby Talbot.
Wonka is scheduled to be released December 15, 2023, by Warner Bros. Pictures.
