Wonka Comes To Max Soon, Here's When

Set up as a prequel, Wonka sees the eponymous character building his candy empire as he faces off against a chocolate cartel. Last year, Chalamet talked about how the movie is meant as a joyful escape from the harsh realities of the world. "In a time and climate of intense political rhetoric, when there's so much bad news all the time, this is hopefully going to be a piece of chocolate," the actor said.

In early December, Wonka got a poster with a creepy detail that's difficult to unsee. While the chocolatier is "sitting down" in the image, it's seemingly been photoshopped this way. Chalamet appears to actually be standing up in character. Thus, the poster just looks off in general.

Wonka premiered in theaters on December 15, so its Max debut will occur within three movies of hitting theaters. Meanwhile, Chalamet will be seen in Dune: Part Two when it releases March 1 on the silver screen.
