Here is the trailer for Wonka, the prequel to Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. It will center on a young Willy Wonka (Timothée Chalamet) and how he met the Oompa-Loompas on one of his earliest adventures. It’s very tempting to dismiss it, but it comes from director Paul King, the man behind both Paddington and Paddington 2, the latter of which is one of the industry’s few perfect films.

In addition to Chalamet, he’s also amassed a stellar cast, some of whom we know from the Paddington films, like Olivia Colman (who will be in Paddington 3), Hugh Grant, and Sally Hawkins, in addition to Rowan Atkinson and Keegan-Michael Key. If you need a reason to hate it, however, Matt Lucas is also in it.

Watch the trailer.

Wonka arrives in theaters on December 15, 2023.
