Chalamet becomes the famous chocolatier in Wonka.
Does he pull it off?
Heres what he brings to the character (and what viewers are saying about the trailer).

Warner Bros.
Hes unpredictable but harmless (right?)
Each comment he must utter is more important than the one he has yet to finish.
His gestures are controlled but deliciously buoyant.

But this doesnt shake Wonka.
Hes got a wide-eyed expression dripping with both instability and ingenuity.
In the just under three-minute preview were awarded, Chalamet walks that fine line between genius and madness.
He flies into the sky with the help of balloons.
Oh, and theres a giraffe running through the street at one point.
Wonka is here to disrupt the status quo.
Hes here to challenge those who hold all the chocolate power.
The trailer features a large choreographed dance number, flying confetti, and life-sized balls of pink cotton candy.
The trailer definitely succeeds in building hype, but what are people saying about it?
