Today in things that no one needed but Netflix has decided to do: a reality show of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Yes, it’s as weird as it sounds, and even more so after the strange tour that went viral last year in London. However, it’s something we will see at some point in the near future, as reported by Deadline.
In 2021, Netflix acquired Roald Dahl Story Company, thus obtaining the rights to almost the entire bibliography of the British writer. And, although we are sure that they will make the most of it in the future, whether through series or movies, what has been confirmed for now is a gastronomic reality show about which we still don’t know much.
Will we get our golden ticket?
Although the idea has been confirmed, a production company is still missing for its realization. At the moment, Netflix would be debating between Fremantle, producer of American Idol, and Wall to Wall, owned by Warner Bros. Discovery. We will keep you informed when the first Oompa Loompas are confirmed.
