After a lot of anticipation, Golden Globe nominations are finally in, with Barbie and Succession leading the way with nine nods each. The HFPA made some pretty great choices this year, but some of this year’s nominations still left us scratching our heads.

Snub: Best Musical/Comedy

It was quite a shocker to see several hit musicals, including The Color Purple, The Little Mermaid, and Wonka shot out of the best comedy or musical field to make room for No Hard Feelings starring Jennifer Lawrence.

Surprise: Foreign Films Make a Cut

It was quite refreshing to see foreign films Anatomy of a Fall and The Zone of Interest, receive nods for the best drama film, while Fallen Leaves’ Alma Pöysti even broke into the competitive acting field.

Snub: Abbot Elementary Stars

Abbott Elementary will be in the running for the best comedy/musical series this year, but Quinta Brunson is the only member of its ensemble cast to receive an acting nod.

Surprise: Saltburn Love

Barry Keoghan and Rosamund Pike received acting nods for their performances in Saltburn, with the latter even booting front-runners Viola Davis (Air) and America Ferrera (Barbie) out of the star-studded best supporting actress field.

Snub: Harrison Ford

The HFPA has a habit of showering A-list stars with love, but they still gave Harrison Ford zero nominations this year, showing no love for his performances in 1923 and Shrinking.

Prepare to step into a realm of pure imagination. Booking.com has something special in store for the December 15 release of the much-anticipated film, Wonka, that will blow you away.

Two hotels, Park Lane New York and Viceroy Santa Monica in Angeles, will offer an extraordinary experience called the Wonka’s Sweet Suites. Collaborating with Highgate Hotels, these accommodations have been transformed into whimsical wonderlands inspired by the forthcoming prequel film, featuring Timothée Chalamet in the lead role.

The rooms include life-sized chocolate creations and a chocolate bar bed adorned with marshmallows, surrounded by cotton candy clouds to make sure you have the sweetest dreams imaginable.

This unparalleled experience isn’t just about a fantastical stay. Bookings for this dreamy escapade will open on December 13th at 12 p.m. EST. Two lucky pairs of guests, on a first-come, first-served basis will get to stay in the suits for only $12.15! Plus, they’ll get tickets to see the movies themselves. 

This Warner Bros. adaptation of Roald Dahl’s beloved tale promises an enchanting tale of the legendary chocolatier’s origins. Joining Chalamet you can expect to see a stellar cast including Keegan-Michael Key, Rowan Atkinson, Olivia Colman, and others.

Timothée Chalamet is one of the most up-and-coming stars and he’s set to play chocolatier Willy Wonka in Wonka, a prequel to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Even though we have to wait until March 17, 2023, for the film to be released, the actor dropped the first look of him as the iconic character and it sent the media into a frenzy. It didn’t take long for the memes to start.

In the post, Chalamet is wearing a velvet burgundy jacket, a silk necktie, and Wonka’s iconic brown top hat while looking beyond the camera. He captioned the post, “The suspense is terrible, I hope it will last…”, which is a line spoken by Gene Wilder’s Wonka in the 191 adaptation of Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory.

Some people didn’t realize Chalamet was cast as Wonka, thinking the post was a joke, others were thrilled to find out about the casting.

And some people couldn’t believe how much his outfit resembled the one Gonzo wears in The Muppet Christmas Carol. You have to admit—they do look really similar.

The actor even joined in on the memes, retweeting a fan edit that used the “Oompa Loompa Song” from the original film and the “Timmy Tim” video.

Here are some other reactions to Chamalet as Wonka. We collected our favorites.

So far there have been two film adaptations of Roald Dahl’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Warner Bros. is making a third. That’s right—there will be three films about the world’s most famous chocolatier. But this one is a bit different, it’s a prequel about the upbringing of Willy Wonka and Timothée Chalamet will be playing Wonka.

Titled Wonka, this one promises to be different than Dahl’s book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and the films that center around a boy named Charlie Bucket who, after winning a golden ticket, gets to tour the infamous chocolate factory run by Willy Wonka. Because this is Wonka’s origin story, Bucket and the other children won’t be in it.

Oh and did we mention, Chalamet will be singing and dancing? That’s pretty exciting—right?

The previous films, 1971 film adaption titled Willy Wonky and the Chocolate Factory and 2005’s reboot Charlie and the Chocolate Factory had Gene Wilder and Johnny Depp playing Wonka.

Wonka is set to start production in September and to debut on March 17, 2023, so we have some time to come to terms with the fact that a third Wonka film is being made. With Chalamet in it, it can’t be too bad.
