Timothée Chalamet is having quite the 2021. From his meme-approved appearance with Bill Murray at the Cannes Film Festival to his white suit at the Met Gala to this first look of him as Willy Wonka for the prequel coming in 2023.
Gene Wilder will always and forever be the Willy Wonka, despite Johnny Depp’s attempt to out-weird one of the strangest characters to be associated with confectionery.
But, one thing Wilder (or TBH that version of Depp) didn’t have was sex appeal. And, this Wonka seems to have it in spades. Or, rather, crystals. You know, because chocolate comes in a crystal matrix and… right.
The reactions so far to the first look are pretty good, so here’s the best memes and tweets we could find.

3. Ok, but hear us out on George Clooney.
Saying you prefer Johnny Depp over Gene Wilder as Willy Wonka is like saying you prefer Val Kilmer over Michael Keaton as Batman.

11. Do we hear a Squid Game sequel?
I don’t need a sexy young Willy Wonka movie. Show me a wicked old, retired Wonka, on an unstoppable killing spree in his nursing home. Taking down seniors left and right with poisoned Werthers and booby-trapped pudding cups.

12. Straight into the world of Charles Dickens? Darn right he is.
