The brand new trailer for Wonka has been released, as we get a closer look at Timothee Chalamet's version of the famous chocolate maker.
The official premise of the Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory prequel reads:
'The story of how Willy Wonka went from a young adult selling chocolate in a small candy store to an eccentric genius known all the world over.'
It stars Chalamet, Calah Lane, Keegan-Michael Key, Paterson Joseph, Matt Lucas, Mathew Baynton, Sally Hawkins, Rowan Atkinson, Jim Carter, Tom Davis, Olivia Colman, and Hugh Grant.
Even though Wonka is yet to hit cinemas, director Paul King is already thinking about another movie set in the world Roald Dahl created.
"I would definitely like to do more. And I’d like to spend more time in this world," he previously told TotalFilm.
"Dahl was definitely interested in taking Willy Wonka on. There are drafts that didn’t really go anywhere, and there’s a short story. He didn’t really write sequels, but this was the one book where he clearly felt there was more in the tank there.
"There’s an awful lot more Wonka story that we have that we would like to tell. I would definitely like to do more. And I’d like to spend more time in this world, and meet some more Oompa Loompas."
From the new trailer, we see more from the villains of the piece - Slugworth, Fickelgruber and Prodnose - who are determined to maintain their dominance over the chocolate and sweet industry.
