However, Chalamet didn’t audition to play the chocolatier.
He also said, “I love musical theatre and I love song and dance …
I didn’t think I’d get a chance to do it, not like this.
But Paul King is one of those directors that you don’t say no to.”
King also told Rolling Stone that Chalamet seemed interested in showcasing his dancing skills in “Wonka.”
Cassie DiLaura atEntertainment Tonightinterviewed Chalamet and Hugh Grant for “Wonka.”
When Timmy Tim was brought up, Chalamet called it “an awful digital footprint” to Grant.
“That’s true,” Chalamet said.
“I would be terrified to see Hugh’s reaction.
I don’t think he would sit alongside me for any more interviews.”
Grant expressed the contrary, showing an interest in seeing Timmy Tim in action.
