Wonka is a 2023 musical fantasy film directed by Paul King, who co-wrote the screenplay with Simon Farnaby, based on a story by King. It tells the origin story of Willy Wonka, a character in the 1964 novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl, featuring his early days as a chocolatier.[8]

This is the third film based on the Dahl book following Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971) and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005). It contains elements from the 1971 version such as musical songs and the Oompa Loompa designs. The film stars Timothée Chalamet in the title role and an ensemble cast including Calah Lane, Keegan-Michael Key, Paterson Joseph, Matt Lucas, Mathew Baynton, Sally Hawkins, Rowan Atkinson, Jim Carter, Natasha Rothwell, Tom Davis, Olivia Colman, and Hugh Grant.

Development began after Warner Bros. Pictures (which previously released Charlie and the Chocolate Factory in 2005) acquired the rights to the character in October 2016 and revealed the film would serve as an origin story for the Willy Wonka character. In May 2021, Chalamet was confirmed to be playing Wonka and the supporting cast were announced in September of that year. Principal photography began in the United Kingdom in September 2021. Filming took place in Warner Bros. Studios, Leavesden in Watford, as well as Oxford, Lyme Regis, Bath, St Albans and at the Rivoli Ballroom in Crofton Park, London. The original songs for the film were contributed by Neil Hannon, while its original score was provided by Joby Talbot.

Wonka had its world premiere in London at the Royal Festival Hall, Southbank Centre, on November 28, 2023, and was released in the United Kingdom on December 8 and in the United States on December 15 by Warner Bros. Pictures. The film has grossed $151 million worldwide and received generally positive reviews from critics. It was nominated for several awards, including a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy for Chalamet.

Plot

Willy Wonka, an aspiring magician, inventor, and chocolatier, arrives in a European city to establish his chocolate shop at the Galeries Gourmet. Burning through his meager savings, he decides to stay at Mrs. Scrubitt's boarding house after meeting her henchman Bleacher and signs a contract despite orphan Noodle's warning about the fine print. To pay off his debt, Wonka introduces "hoverchocs", chocolates that make people fly, at Galeries Gourmet facing mockery from three rival chocolatiers who call the Chief of Police to confiscate his earnings due to him disrupting their businesses from a lack of a shop.

Unable to pay the exorbitant fees imposed on him by the contract, Wonka is captured and starts to work in a launderette with five captives for Mrs. Scrubitt. Learning of a "Chocolate Cartel" plot involving the rival chocolatiers, Wonka makes Scrubitt and Bleacher fall in love and facilitates his escape to sell chocolate with the help of Noodle, who will receive a lifetime supply of chocolates. The Cartel exploits the Chief of Police's weakness for chocolate to force Wonka to leave town while Wonka tells Noodle that his affinity for chocolate stems from his late mother, who gave him one last chocolate bar.

During one run, Wonka realizes that his chocolates have been stolen by a mysterious orange man who had been stalking him for years, and he and Noodle travel to the local zoo to milk its giraffe Abigail as Wonka creates his signature chocolate using giraffe milk. Wonka and Noodle recruit Abacus, Piper, Larry, and Lottie to help him sell chocolates to pay their debts while evading Scrubitt and the Chief.

Meanwhile, Wonka catches the man who had been stealing his chocolates, who is revealed to be an Oompa Loompa named Lofty. Years ago, Wonka took precious cocoa beans from the Oompa Loompas under Lofty's watch and he is now hunting down Wonka to repay his debts. Lofty fools Wonka into escaping.

Wonka's group earns enough money to open his dream chocolate store, to the excitement of a crowd. However, the Chief and the Chocolate Cartel, who learned of Wonka's operations, rat them out to Scrubitt. She taints his chocolates with Yeti sweat, causing the customers' hair to grow excessively and their skin to become discolored. The angry crowd ransacks and destroys Wonka's store in retaliation. As the team returns to the launderette, the Cartel reveals themselves as the masterminds to Wonka and offers to pay off everyone's debts if he leaves town and stops making chocolate. Wonka reluctantly accepts the offer and leaves by boat that night with Lofty joining him. He motivates him to return and fight back against the Cartel before the two abandon ship as it explodes from dynamite.

With their debts paid, Abacus, Piper, Larry, and Lottie are released from the launderette, but Slugworth pays Scrubitt to refrain from releasing Noodle. Wonka and the group rescue Noodle, and Wonka tells her he deduced she is the daughter of Slugworth's deceased brother. After Noodle's birth mother Dorothy Smith left her to Slugworth, he realized she could challenge his claim to the family fortune. Slugworth disposed of his niece to Scrubitt and lied to Dorothy that she had died. Wonka and the group form a plan to expose the Cartel by obtaining an account book Abacus had previously spotted while working for Slugworth.

Using a distraction caused by Abigail, Wonka and Noodle enter the base, but are cornered by the Cartel who attempt to drown them in their reserves of chocolate. Wonka tells them to give a jar of hover chocs to Lofty to repay his debts, but the Cartel and Julius eat the chocolates making Lofty knock out Father Julius and rescue the two. Upon confronting the Cartel and the Chief, Wonka and Noodle expose their actions to the police and the public through their account book and release their chocolate reserve laced with Wonka's true ingredients through a fountain, ruining their business. The Cartel uncontrollably levitates due to the hover chocs, while the Chief of Police is arrested.

The crowd celebrates by tasting Wonka's chocolate fountain as Wonka unwraps his mother's chocolate bar. Inside, he finds a Golden Ticket with a message from his mother telling him that chocolate is best shared. Wonka shares his mother's chocolate with his friends. Wonka helps Noodle meet Dorothy, then pays off his debt to Lofty. He and Lofty purchase an abandoned castle and begin building a factory. In an epilogue, Scrubitt and Bleacher are arrested after their attempt to eliminate evidence of sabotaging Wonka's shop backfires.

Production

In October 2016, Warner Bros. Pictures reacquired the rights to the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (1964) character Willy Wonka created by Roald Dahl, with a film in development from producers David Heyman and Michael Siegel.[19] In February 2018, it was announced Paul King was in negotiations to direct.[20][21] That same year, it was reported the studio's shortlist of actors to star as Willy Wonka included Donald Glover, Ryan Gosling, and Ezra Miller,[22] and it was revealed the film would serve as a prequel to the events of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.[23]

In January 2021, it was confirmed King would direct the film, now titled Wonka,[24] and it was reported that Timothée Chalamet and Tom Holland were the frontrunners for the title role.[25] In May, Chalamet was cast, and it was announced the film would include several musical numbers. He was the director's only choice for the role, with King stating that he offered the actor the part with no audition after seeing his high school performances on YouTube, which proved his vocal and dancing skills.[26][27] Chalamet was paid $9 million for his involvement.[28] It was also revealed the film would be using a screenplay co-written by King's Paddington 2 (2017) collaborator Simon Farnaby; Jeff Nathanson, Simon Rich, and Simon Stephenson also provided additional literary material.[29][30] In September 2021, it was announced Keegan-Michael Key, Sally Hawkins, Rowan Atkinson, Olivia Colman, and Jim Carter were among the newest additions to the cast, with Farnaby also set for a role.[31][32]

Principal photography began in the United Kingdom in September 2021,[33] with Seamus McGarvey set as cinematographer, Nathan Crowley as production designer,[34] Mark Everson as film editor, and Lindy Hemming as costume designer.[32] Filming took place in historic Lyme Regis and Bath,[35][36] as well as at Warner Bros. Studios, Leavesden in Watford.[37][38] Filming also occurred at the Rivoli Ballroom in Brockley, London.[39] By December, McGarvey exited as cinematographer with Chung Chung-hoon replacing him.[40] Scenes were shot in Oxford in December and February.[41][42]

Music and soundtrack

Main article: Wonka (soundtrack)

Neil Hannon, lead singer of the Divine Comedy, contributed original songs for the film.[32] The musical score was composed by Joby Talbot.[43] The soundtrack containing the original songs and score was released by WaterTower Music on December 8, 2023.[44][45]

Release

Wonka had special screenings at ShowEast on October 24, 2023, and at the auditorium at Naval Support Activity Hampton Roads on November 19.[46][47] On November 20 the film had a special premiere in Tokyo, with a red carpet attended by director Paul King, producers, David Heyman and Alexandra Derbyshire, and stars, Timothée Chalamet and Hugh Grant. The film had its world premiere in London, at the Royal Festival Hall, Southbank Centre, on November 28, 2023,[48] and was theatrically released by Warner Bros. Pictures in the United Kingdom on December 8, 2023,[49] followed by the United States, on December 15, 2023, in both conventional theaters and in Dolby Cinema and IMAX.[50] It was originally set for release on March 17, 2023.[24][51]

Marketing

The marketing campaign from Warner Bros. Pictures for Wonka began on October 10, 2021, when Chalamet shared a photograph of himself in costume as Willy Wonka. The image was posted on Chalamet's Instagram with the caption "The suspense is terrible, I hope it will last," a reference to the 1971 film Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory starring Gene Wilder as the title character,[52][53] which itself is a quote from the 1895 play The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde.[54] The Guardian noted that the image was met with mixed reception online.[55]

On April 26, 2022, footage of Chalamet as Willy Wonka was shared during Warner Bros. Pictures' presentation at CinemaCon. It also featured a rendition of the song "Pure Imagination" from the 1971 film.[56][8] Deadline described the trailer: "Think Fantastic Beasts in regards to period (early 20th century), but so much more fun".[57] The following year at the convention, Warner Bros. screened a teaser trailer for Wonka, which also saw a first-look at Grant as an Oompa-Loompa,[58] which caused criticism from actors with dwarfism, including Jason Acuña, who remarked, "So I guess Hugh Grant, you’re now identifying as a little person".[59] IndieWire praised Chalamet's transformation as Wonka remarking: "like the chocolate he concocts in this first trailer, it will make you fly".[60] The trailer was released to the public on July 11, 2023, alongside a teaser poster.[61] The film was also promoted during the 97th Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on November 23, 2023, in the form of a float called "The Deliciously Delectable World of Wonka."[62][63]

Box office

As of December 17, 2023, Wonka has grossed $39 million in the United States and Canada, and $112.4 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $151.4 million.[6][7]

In the United States and Canada, Wonka was projected to gross around $40 million from 4,150 theaters in its opening weekend.[64] The film made $14.4 million on its first day, including $3.5 million from Thursday night previews. It went on to debut to $39 million, becoming the first live-action musical to top the box office in the post-pandemic era.[65]

The film was released one week earlier in several overseas markets, where it grossed $43.2 million from 37 countries. The biggest totals were from the United Kingdom ($11.1 million), Mexico ($5.2 million), Spain ($4.4 million), Germany ($3.6 million), China ($3.3 million), Japan ($3.1 million), and Brazil ($2 million).[66]

Reception

Critical response

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 84% of 241 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 7.3/10. The website's consensus reads: "With director Paul King at the helm and some solid new songs at the ready, the warmly old-fashioned Wonka puts a suitably sweet spin on the classic character while still leaving some room for the source material's darker undertones."[67] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 66 out of 100, based on 62 critics, indicating "generally favorable" reviews.[68] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A–" on an A+ to F scale, while those polled by PostTrak gave it an 85% overall positive score, with 64% saying they would definitely recommend the film.[65]

While Rotten Tomatoes found the initial reactions on social media to be mostly positive, with some reviewers criticizing the script and others praising Chalamet's performance and the film's presentation, there was overwhelming criticism for the making and casting of the film.[69] The website then stated that the film "is silly and fun for the whole family with catchy music and stunning production design, even if it loses some of the edge found in its predecessors."[70] The BBC reported that a number of critics likened the film tonally to the Paddington films, and despite "several glowing reviews", some felt that Wonka "lacks the darker elements of previous versions". Chalamet's performance was both praised and criticized for his singing, and some considered him miscast.[71]
