The film belongs to the universe created by British author Roald Dahl in 1964 novel “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.” It is directed by Paul King and produced by Heyday Films, Village Roadshow Pictures and Warner Bros.
George Coppen, a British actor with dwarfism, best known for playing Sweet Cupid in Netflix’s “The School for Good and Evil,”: “A lot of actors [with dwarfism] feel like we are being pushed out of the industry we love. A lot of people, myself included, argue that dwarfs should be offered everyday roles in dramas and soaps, but we aren’t getting offered those roles. One door is being closed but they have forgotten to open the next one.
In the “Wonka” trailer, Wonka meets Grant’s Oompa Loompa, who is in a glass jar, and says: “So you’re the funny little man who’s been following me?” The Oompa Loompa replies: “I will have you know that I am a perfectly respectful size for an Oompa-Loompa.” “They’ve enlarged his head so his head looks bigger. [I thought] what the hell have you done to him?,” Coppen told the BBC.
In previous adaptations of “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,” “Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory” and “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” , Oompa Loompas were played by actors with dwarfism.“Wonka” is due to release Dec. 15.
