Director Paul King provides an update on the status of Wonka 2, including script progress and potential plot points. The sequel holds promise for expanding the fantastical world.

The 2023 movie Wonka, a musical prequel to Roald Dahl’s novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, was a box-office success and received positive acclaim. As director Paul King attended the premiere of Paddington in Peru, he was asked about the status of Wonka’s sequel. King revealed that work on the movie is in its early stages, with only about half of an initial draft completed. However, he has a clear idea of where he wants to take Willy Wonka’s story next.

King teased that he hopes to take Wonka 2 on a globe-trotting adventure outside the city. This hints at a continuation of the fantastical world introduced in the first movie. Wonka’s story is filled with exotic ingredients and hints at a wider world beyond the city. The movie also left the redemption of Lofty the Oompa Loompa unfulfilled, providing potential storylines for the sequel.

Wonka was a surprise hit in 2023, despite initial audience division. Its success has made it a promising property to explore, and King has been eager to expand the world and bring the story closer to Dahl’s tale. With development in its early days but a set trajectory in mind, Wonka 2 holds promise for fans eager to return to this world of pure imagination.
