Collider Movies and TV | Timothée Chalamet's Willy Wonka Role Reimagined With Other Actors @ColliderMoviesandTV | Uploaded December 2023 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
Willy Wonka is one of the most iconic fictional characters there is. From Roald Dahl’s original novel, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, to the many adaptations that followed, putting on Willy Wonka’s famous purple suit is quite the honor for an actor. When it comes to taking on a role that everyone knows so well, it’s no surprise that any actor who gets the job will face some pushback from the public. When Timothee Chalamet took on the titular role for the upcoming film, Wonka, the internet was all abuzz with who they might have chosen for the role. If you have an actor in mind who you think would be perfect to play Willy Wonka, you’re definitely not alone. And, luckily, we have AI to show us`what it may have looked like for some of our favorite actors to don the purple suit. Plenty of folks thoughtJeremy Allen White’s looks made him the perfect actor to play a young Gene Wilder, while others thought Ezra Miller was perfect for a young version of Johnny Depp’s interpretation of the character. Taika Waititi and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson both have their own, unique associations with Willy Wonka that may have made them great choices for the role. And, some internet memes had folks considering Charlie Day, Nicholas Hoult, and Ryan Reynolds as options. Miles Teller and Eddie Redmayne could have been great picks, just like Tom Holland, who actually did almost snag the role. We’re looking at how all of these actors would have looked if they did get cast.
