Who Will Be The Next WILLY WONKA? (Yep, They're Doing Another One.)
Four months after hiring Paddington helmer Paul King to direct its new Willy Wonka movie, Warner Bros. has begun putting together a shortlist of stars for the titular role, and we hear it’s led by Ryan Gosling, Donald Glover and Ezra Miller.
Let me get this out of the way...
Remaking Willy Wonka, yet again, is a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad idea.
I don’t like it.
Just remaster the original, send it to theaters.
That said - these are some really unique choices for Wonka.
I’m pushing for Glover here, but any one of the three could be an interesting watch.
Btw, are the Paddington movies as good as I’ve heard?
