Take one prequel to Roald Dahl’s beloved novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, add in the director of the Paddington films and tween heartthrob Timothée Chalamet, as well as a cast of stellar British acting talent into the mix and what do you get? The sweetest of Hollywood treats.
Excitement for the golden ticket has been building since Chalamet was cast as Wonka and, as director Paul King tells the audience during a screening for the trailer last week, the Dune and Call Me By Your Name star was the perfect choice.
