Willy Wonka is one of Hollywood’s most iconic characters. His story is adapted from a Roald Dahl novel from 1964 and has yielded two movies: 1971’s Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory with Gene Wilder as the titular character, and Tim Burton’s 2005 remake, Charlie & the Chocolate Factory where Johnny Depp played the lead. Now, Warner Bros. is retelling Willy Wonka’s journey in the form of an origin story with Timothée Chalamet in Wonka.Chalamet’s younger Wonka is kinder and a lot more endearing than past interpretations. His travels bring him to England, where he hopes to build his confectionery empire and honor his deceased mother, the person who hoped he’d share the allure, taste and magic of chocolate and sweets with the world. However, Wonka finds himself in grave danger, as the “Chocolate Cartel” in London decides he has to die because they can’t stand how he encroaches on their monopoly. This stranglehold they have leads to an emotional ending where Wonka shows his perseverance, resilience and how the concept of family can really elevate people to success.Thankfully, Wonka survives his boat blowing up, and returns to partner with his friends Noodle, Abacus, Lottie, Larry and Piper. Together, they go on an Ocean’s Eleven heist to infiltrate the Church that’s hiding the cartel’s ledger about their illicit dealings, from bribes to laundering, to many other infractions. However, the cartel intercepts Wonka and Noodle, placing them into a clarifier of giant chocolate to die. Luckily, Hugh Grant’s Oompa Loompa (aka Lofty whom Wonka owes a debt) returns to help free the heroes. It’s partly because he has a hero inside and wants to screw over the cartel, but mostly, to protect his investment.
