New "WONKA" trailer just dropped

https://youtube.com/watch?v=eoD997MyPyE

I know there's a thread with an image but I want some DC for myself.

Looks like it could be OKish, but Chalamet is really not jumping out at me here as a great Willy Wonka. It does seem like this is meant to be a prequel to the 70s movie, though.

The prequel no one asked for

Cruella, Maleficent, and now this.

Can't people just leave the character as an burned-out cynic and aloof eccentric who wants to retire, but due to the loss of belief in the goodness of humanity, he makes a "one good man in Sodom" wager to find a replacement.

I liked Cruella but it’s clearly not the same character. I thought of it more as a “what if” type story where Cruella wasn’t raised by his psychotic part-devil mother and instead had a much healthier upbringing.

Once I thought about it more, it could be interesting if they show a lot of factory hijinks. Don't see that here though, but might just not be in the trailer. This looks like a pretty by-the-books musical, actually. I was expecting it to be about him finding the oompa loompas and shit like that in a fantasy-adventure type thing.

I'm not a child anymore so chances are I'd never watch them anyway but I can't stand these "villain/jaded person/misunderstood etc is actually good guys" prequels, they're all shit. Maleficent was the one that made me mald the most but that's because it was the only one I watched.

I wouldn’t say Wonka was ever really a villain.

Same. But it's the same kind of vein.

Agree with that. I'm sick of remakes/reboots/reimaginings/"prequels" in general, lmao.

Dark Gritty Prequel/Sequel where the movie's name is the same as the main character's name. Watch the seats all sell out instantly.

Chalamet is so bad as Willy Wonka that it makes me appreciate Johnny Depp.

I don’t care for the reviews. I love the 2005 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, it was one of my favorite movies when I was a kid.

Chalamet was such a terrible choice for Willy Wonka

Yeah I only remember seeing him in the Dune movie so idk much about him, but he does not seem good from this trailer.

Might be okay. Same director as Paddington, which I unironically liked

Learning that made me think it could be good as well. Not a fan of Chalamet in the trailer, though, which is the most important part of the whole thing.

This better not awaken anything in me.
