Following newly released footage, it has been revealed Hugh Grant will be appearing in the upcoming Wonka film as an Oompa-Loompa.

Set for release via Warner Bros. on December 15th, the highly-anticipated film marks the third movie adaptation of Road Dahl’s children’s classic, Charlie And The Chocolate Factory. The upcoming adaptation will star Timothée Chalamet as iconic character Willy Wonka.

Now, after the release of the film’s latest trailer at CinemaCon in Las Vegas, the Notting Hill actor is confirmed as one of Chalamet’s Oompa-Loompas.

Audiences who were treated to the extended footage were shown Chalamet stumbling upon Grant as an Oompa-Loompa trapped in a glass jar, who is later hired by the fictional sweet treat developer as an employee of his factory.

The trailer also paid homage to Singin’ In the Rain, depicting Chalamet as Wonka singing, dancing, and spinning around a light pole while in search of magical recipes. Viewers were also given a glimpse into Olivia Colman’s character as a Cockney innkeeper and Sally Hawkins as Wonka’s mother.

Although specific details remain limited on the upcoming adaptation, it has been confirmed that Charlie will not feature in the film, nor any of the chosen characters to visit the factory. Instead, the Chalamet-lead movie will delve into the character’s origin story, and is set as Wonka is about to launch the world-famous location.

This sets it aside from previous adaptations; 1971’s Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory, and Charlie And The Chocolate Factory (2005), both of which followed the novel’s narrative, played by Gene Wilder and Johnny Depp respectively.

Paul King, who previously worked on 2014’s Paddington, is the movie’s director.

Most recently, Grant also starred in Rian Johnson’s Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery and John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein’s Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves.
