The first trailer for Timothée Chalamet’s upcoming film Wonka, which will examine the origin story of the well-known chocolatier, transports us into his imaginative world.
The film stars Chalamet from Call Me by Your Name and Dune as the eccentric chocolatier before he opened his well-known Oompa Loompa-run business. It’s a musical prequel to the popular Roald Dahl novel that served as the basis for the 1971 film Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, which featured Gene Wilder in the title role.
In the trailer, Chalamet dons the well-known top hat and purple velvet coat as he seizes control of a tiny town and makes plans to establish his own factory where he can spread his love of chocolate to everyone.
The Wonka trailer teases the hilarious introduction to Oompa Loompas
According to Out.com, Paul King, the film’s director and one of the script’s co-writers with Simon Farnaby, stated that he didn’t want to create the quirky chocolate maker from scratch. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, he said, “I didn’t want to reinvent those things because it felt like that ’71 movie had come up with these incredibly enduring, iconic looks.” “I wanted this film to function as a sort of companion piece to that one. That was my initial thought process, putting those folks in that scenario 25 years ago. He would eventually develop into that individual and that factory.
In the trailer, we see Wonka making friends with a little orphan girl who travels with him as he works to establish his business. Wonka’s amusing introduction to the Oompa Loompas is also shown to us. Hugh Grant is the actor that portrays the small orange man, and he even performs a ridiculous dance to introduce himself.
Rowan Atkinson, Olivia Colman, Jim Carter, Keegan-Michael Key, Tom Davis, Sally Hawkins, Kobna Holdbrook-Smith, and Matt Lucas are among the other actors who appear in the movie.
Why is the Wonka actor Timothee Chalamet an internet sensation?
Timothée Chalamet is the only person who can make bedhead appear indisputably seductive.
However, Timothée Chalamet can make anything appear seductive, whether it be playing the piano while unclothed, mumbling some poor French, or simply grooving around in the midst of northern Italy. The New Yorker made his film debut in Jason Reitman’s Men, Women & Children after first appearing in a number of television programs, including Homeland, before getting his big break in Christopher Nolan’s cerebral sci-fi film, Interstellar. Call Me By Your Name, a 2017 coming-of-age drama directed by Luca Guadagnino, was when Chalamet finally cemented his place as a breakout star with a stunningly mature performance that was much beyond his years.
We can’t wait to see Timothee’s charm once again with Wonka!
