As the 2023 movie release schedule draws to a close, one of the late breaking successes is that of Warner Bros. Wonka. With the Timothée Chalamet-led musical performing rather well, even in the wake of Aquaman 2’s first weekend grosses, sweet success feels like it’s a firm possibility that’s not just pure imagination. And yet, even amidst this tide of good fortune, some potential fans are still criticizing this movie for being something it’s not.
This has led to Wonka co-writer Simon Farnaby to rebut this very incorrect assumption. Farnaby, a frequent collaborator with director/co-writer Paul King, took to his Twitter to correct a statement that has probably come up more than people would like in the wake of Wonka.
