New Willy Wonka movie??
    #1849943 - 08/25/03 10:09 PM (20 years, 5 months ago)

I'm honestly not sure how I feel about this :frown:  The original is one of the all-time classics.  How do you retool the Ooomp-Pah song?  Will Snozzberries still taste like Snozzberries?  32 years later (man.. has it been that long?) and even I've had hundreds of Everlasting Gobstoppers.  Oh well... if it's getting redone, I can't think of anyone better than Tim Burton to do it.

Depp Eyes Wonka Role
Johnny Depp met with director Tim Burton about starring in Burton's upcoming Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and is poised to sign up for the role of Willy Wonka, Variety reported. If Depp joins the cast, it will mark his fourth collaboration with Burton, after starring in the director's Sleepy Hollow, Edward Scissorhands and Ed Wood.

Depp (Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl) was offered the role in the Warner Brothers adaptation of the Roald Dahl classic book, and negotiations are expected to begin shortly, the trade paper reported. Plan B partners Brad Grey, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston are producing, as is Michael Siegel, who manages the interests of the Dahl estate, the trade paper reported. Dahl adapted his novel for the 1971 film Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, but reportedly wasn't thrilled with the result.

A script for the film is still being readied. Scott Frank wrote a draft, followed by Gwyn Lurie, and Warner has hired Pamela Pettler to write the latest version, the trade paper reported. Pettler wrote The Corpse Bride?the Mike Johnson-directed stop-motion animation film about a man who inadvertently marries a corpse?which Burton is producing.

And I'm only saying this because I care... but there are a lot of brands on the market that taste just as good as the real thing without all that caffiene.

I was hoping Christopher Walken would get the part, he has the right mix of kooky and frightening.

Still, how can you go wrong with Depp and Burton?

Then its usually all laughs and good times from there.

Christopher Walken would be awsome in it.. Did you ever see him on that one episode of SNL ? That episode was key.

i really didnt think they should remake this movie yet, but Depp should be great. I think he really wants to do this part for his kid to see. he was on tv talking about his daughter and play acting with her.

Depp is great, and I'm sure he'll do a good job, but I'm not sure he's the best choice for the role. Christopher Walken is actually a pretty interesting idea, he'd put a darker spin on the role, which would probably work well with Burton's style.

Even though I think Tim Burton is kind of a hack.
