Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Adapting another Roald Dahl novel, Burton releases Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, starring Johnny Depp as Willy Wonka, Freddie Highmore as Charlie Bucket and Helena Bonham Carter as Mrs. Bucket. The film played a more true-to-the-book role than the 1971 adaptation Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, starring Gene Wilder, but added a back story about Wonka’s paternal issues.
