Timothée Chalamet Shows Off the Chocolate Factory in ‘Wonka’ Trailer

He’s back, and he’s making (more) chocolate, of course.

Warner Bros. has released another look at Timothée Chalamet as Willy Wonka in the new “Wonka” trailer. The second trailer gives a further glimpse into the origin story of the iconic chocolate maker, with Chalamet serving another comedic rendition of the beloved character.

Alongside Chalamet, “Wonka” stars Hugh Grant, Olivia Colman, Sally Hawkins, Keegan-Michael Key, Matthew Baynton, Matt Lucas, Rowan Atkinson, Jim Carter, Natasha Rothwell, Simon Farnaby, Paterson Joseph, Tom Davis, Rakhee Thakrar, Justin Edwards, Colin O’Brien, Ellie White, Freya Parker and Kobna Holdbrook-Smith.

Paul King directs from a script he co-wrote alongside Simon Farnaby. Michael Siegel and Alexandra Derbyshire executive produce, while Luke Kelly and David Heyman via Heyman Films serve as producers.

King revealed to Rolling Stone that Chalamet did not have to audition for “Wonka” after seeing his viral high school performances on YouTube. “It was a straight offer because he’s great and he was the only person in my mind who could do it,” King said. “But because he’s Timothée Chalamet and his life is so absurd, his high school musical performances are on YouTube and have hundreds of thousands of views. So I knew from stanning for Timmy Chalamet that he could sing and dance really well.”

Willy Wonka is a character created by Roald Dahl in his 1964 children’s novel “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.” The story follows Charlie Bucket, a young boy who ends up winning a golden ticket to tour Wonka’s iconic chocolate factory. Gene Wilder first stepped into the role as Wonka in 1971’s “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory,” while Johnny Depp led Tim Burton’s 2005 adaptation.

“Wonka” will make its theatrical debut Dec. 15. Watch the full trailer below.
