00:00 - Three, two, one, action!

00:02 - This movie was like a breath of fresh air

00:06 with a story that's outside the bounds

00:07 of Roald Dahl's original material.

00:09 I thought it was magical.

00:10 - I really wanted this movie to be able to sit

00:13 as a companion piece to the original movie.

00:16 I know how much it means to people

00:18 because it means a lot to me too.

00:20 - Paul's doing a really exciting reinvention

00:22 of Willie's origin stories.

00:24 - In this story, Willie is going to have to find help

00:26 from other people.

00:27 He can't do it on his own.

00:28 He gets help from the Wash House gang.

00:31 - We recognize that he could be brought into the fold.

00:34 We see the effect of that teamwork come into play.

00:37 - So you're the funny little man who's been following me.

00:41 I will have you know that I am a perfectly respectable size

00:43 for an Oompa Loompa.

00:45 - I don't think it would be a Willie Wonka film

00:47 unless there were Oompa Loompas.

00:48 It felt like they had to be there.

00:50 We would try to think of somebody who could be

00:52 very superior and judgmental and very funny at the same time

00:56 and Hugh Grant was the only person to play it.

00:58 - That's my last jar!

01:00 - I said good day.

01:02 - In this story, Willie's ambitious enough,

01:05 wily enough to come up with a plan

01:07 to not only help the Wash House gang

01:09 but also realize his dreams as a chocolatier.
