When Warner Bros. decided to reboot the Willy Wonka franchise, some fans were skeptical. Many felt, after the Tim Burton remake with Johnny Depp in 2005, maybe the studio didn’t know how to recapture the magic of the Gene Wilder depiction from 1971. There is a fiercely loyal fan base, after all, not just for the original, but Roald Dahl’s novels in general. Luckily, this origin story that is retold in Wonka is filled with heart, soul and a modern update that is sure to resonate with families for the Christmas season.Timothée Chalamet as Willy Wonka delivers a resplendent performance as a dreamer who traverses the globe with the intention of opening his own boutique and sharing his magical sweets with everyone. Thankfully, Willy is able to stave off the “Chocolate Cartel” and achieve his goal, forging unique bonds and a new family along the way. However, as heart-warming as Wonka is, it does end with quite a few plot holes and questions left unresolved.Ironically, Willy’s own father is never addressed. Given Willy that cracked the mystery about Noodle’s father dying, her uncle Slugworth stealing her inheritance, and then hiding the girl away, one would have thought Noodle would have asked Willy about his father. Even in the flashback story prior that he recalls, it’s all about Willy and his mother. This leaves fans wondering if Willy’s father has been kept a mystery that could be detailed in a Wonka sequel, the same way the MCU hid Ego as Star Lord’s father. Seeing as Willy does keep some secrets close to his chest, it definitely is a burning question that is ripe with potential should Warner Bros. Discovery executives decide to expand the property into a franchise.
