Plot
Timothee Chalamet plays a young Willy Wonka in this new adaptation of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," a children's book by author Roald Dahl that was published in 1964.
This new adaptation tells the story of how the biggest inventor, magician and chocolatier of the planet turned into Willy Wonka, the enigmatic character we know now days. A young Willy will be introduced in the chocolate and the magic world and there'll be people who will try to stop him, but he won't let them.
Wonka's adolescence wasn't easy and he didn't became the chocolate Mozart from dust to dawn. The young Willy will embark on a mission to share joy among people through hiscrazy inventions, which will turn fast into a phenomenon that'll will also capture the unwanted attention from the Chocolate Cartel.
In his intimate story we will also meet the people who accompanied and were important to Willy Wonka during his ascent to fame. His mother and his friendship with an orphan girl were a major factor in the chocolatier's life.
Paul King, author of the two installments of 'Paddington', is in charge of directing this new adaptation of the legendary tale. Joining Chalamet in the cast are Olivia Colman, Rowan Atkison, Tom David, Matt Lucas and Hugh Grant playing a little Oompa Loompa.

Trivia
Timmy's digital print
Paul King casted Timothée Chalamet based on his performance in the school project/rap video 'Lil Timmy Tim: Statistics (Ms. Lawton)' from 2013.
A little trauma
Hugh Grant said director Paul King sent him a mock-up of the Oompa Loompa stark naked. And his little children were a little alarmed at that: "It was one of the most disturbing things I've ever seen in my life. If it ever leaks out, a generation of children will be scarred.", Grant said.
Oompa-Loompa origins
The design of the Oompa Loompas is taken straight out of 'Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory' (1971), the first adaptation of the novel. The descriptions of the Oompa Loompas from the novels only specify that they have knee-length height, long hair, and speak their own language.
