Timothée Chalamet most certainly scored the golden ticket with this one.
The highly anticipated trailer for the movie Wonka dropped July 11, giving fans a glimpse at the 27-year-old stepping into the titular role as the beloved Roald Dahl character alongside actor Hugh Grant, who portrays a dancing Oompa-Loompa.
According to Warner Bros., Wonka—which is set for release on Dec. 15—”tells the wondrous story of how the world’s greatest inventor, magician and chocolate-maker became the beloved Willy Wonka we know today.”
Back in 2021, the actor posted the first photo of himself as Willy Wonka, sparking a buzz on the internet over his transformation. Quoting Gene Wilder‘s Wonka character from the 1971 musical movie Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, Timothée captioned a picture of himself decked out in crimson velvet and a top hat, “The suspense is terrible. I hope it will last …”
He added, “WONKA,” alongside a factory and chocolate bar emoji.
The snap sent social media into a frenzy, as one user tweeted, “In this one, Wonka f–ks,” while another wrote, “Timothée Chalamet as Willy Wonka if Willy Wonka made the Forbes 30 under 30.”
