Netflix remaking Charlie and Chocolate Factory
Oompa Loompa Doompadee Doo! Netflix is remaking “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.”
The streaming platform is creating two animated series based on Roald Dahl’s 1964 novel.
Oscar winner Taika Waititi will write, direct and executive produce both projects.
The first is a series based on the world and characters in the book and the second is focused on the Oompa-Loompas featured in the novel.
These small humans work in the Willy Wonka Factory and like to play practical jokes on people.
The Roald Dahl Story Company says they are overjoyed that Waititi is heading the project.
He won an academy award this year for “JoJo Rabbit” and previously directed “Thor: Ragnarok.”
