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.
