Plot

In a chocolate factory, a gloved hand lays Golden Tickets on five chocolate bars, which are wrapped with other bars into trucks across the world. Near the factory, Charlie Bucket lives in a small shack with his parents and all four grandparents in a town. Their only income comes from his father, who screws on caps at a toothpaste factory. Grandpa Joe then tells Charlie about the time he worked for Wonka at the factory, his palace made out of chocolate for Prince Pondicherry, who let it melt in the boiling sun after ignoring Wonka's advice to eat it. When the prince requested a new one, Wonka could not build it for him because of his own problems concerning spies who had infiltrated the factory. It was because of these spies that Wonka closed his factory and fired all his workers. Then, it inexplicably re-opened, though no new workers had been hired.

The next day, Charlie hears about a major contest to be held for a chance to see it firsthand: Willy Wonka has announced worldwide that five Golden Tickets have been placed in five Wonka Bars, and that the finder of each of these tickets will be given a full tour of the factory, along with one parent, and a lifetime's supply of chocolate. In addition to this, one of the five ticket-holders will be given a special prize at the end of the tour. Unfortunately, the increased sale of chocolate causes a rise in cavities, which in turn boosts the sale of toothpaste; with the increased profits, the toothpaste factory decides to modernize, and buys a new machine that eliminates Mr. Bucket's job. Charlie's birthday soon arrives, and he opens his yearly chocolate bar, which does not have a Golden Ticket. Grandpa Joe gives Charlie some money to buy another bar, but it also does not contain a ticket. Charlie finds a ten-dollar note in the snow and decides to buy a chocolate bar, which contains the fifth golden ticket. Charlie wants to sell the ticket to make money for his family, but in the end decides to go to the factory. A regular Wonka Bar from Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory. ...

The next morning, Charlie and his Grandpa Joe arrive for the tour, and are greeted by an automated puppet show that breaks down. During a tour of the factory, the first four ticket-winning children are one by one tempted by something, causing a strange accident that eliminates the child and their worried accompanying parent from the tour.

Spoiled Veruca Salt tries to steal a squirrel in the Nut Sorting Room, where she is deemed a "bad nut" by the squirrels and thrown down the garbage chute along with her father. Mike Teavee, who is obsessed with violent television and video games, teleports himself over Mr. Wonka's TV waves, shrinking him down to miniature size, and is taken to the taffy pulling room to be stretched back to normal.

After Mike Teavee's departure, Willy Wonka invites Charlie to come live in the factory and work with him. The only catch is that Charlie must abandon his family in order to accept the arrangement, because, in Mr. Wonka's opinion, family members only tell one what to do, and a chocolatier needs complete creative freedom. It transpires that Wonka's dentist father, Dr. Wilbur Wonka, denied him chocolate and candies because of the potential risk to his teeth. After finally sneaking in a piece of chocolate, he became obsessed with it, dreaming of becoming a chocolatier. Despite his father's wishes and threats, Wonka ran away from home to follow his dreams. As his family is the most important thing in his life, Charlie refuses the offer. Charlie's family is living contently a while later, as his father gets a new job maintaining the machine that performs his old job. Later, Wonka encounters Charlie, who is now a shoe-shine boy and asks him to join him in confronting his own father. The Wonkas reconcile, and Wonka Jr. finally realizes the value of family. Charlie's house and family are relocated to the factory's Chocolate Room.

Cast

• Freddie Highmore as Charlie Bucket: A poor boy who lives with his parents and four grandparents in a tiny, rickety shack in a large city. Charlie loves chocolate, especially Willy Wonka's chocolate, but his family can only afford to get him one bar a year, on his birthday. He does not complain about his life, and is a goodhearted boy.
• Johnny Depp as Willy Wonka: The greatest chocolate maker in the world. He closed his factory, fired all of his workers, and replaced them with natives of Loompaland because of his fear of corporate spies working in the pay of other, less successful companies. He sends out five Golden Tickets and allowed five children to visit the factory in order to find an heir after finding a grey hair. He is intelligent, but has stunted social skills that render him extremely bizarre to most people from the "outside world", due to his unhappy childhood and the long isolation from the world since the factory's closure.
• Deep Roy as The Oompa-Loompas: They are Wonka's little factory workers from Loompaland, an uncharted land. They had a horrible life in Loompaland until Willy Wonka arrived, who promised them an infinite supply of their favourite food, cacao beans, if they agreed to work in his factory. Deep Roy was multiplied several times to play all of them.
• David Kelly as Grandpa Joe: A former worker at Wonka's factory, he is Charlie's paternal grandfather and despite spending ten years in a bed, he is able enough to accompany Charlie during his visit to the factory.
• Jordan Fry as Mike Teavee: A tech-savvy boy who is obsessed with television and violent video games. He got a Golden Ticket by hacking into the Wonka Computer Mainframe, and only had to buy one bar after finding its location. He does not like chocolate and has very little patience, due to playing so many video games, and a superiority complex over mostly everyone.
• AnnaSophia Robb as Violet Beauregarde: A girl who is constantly chewing gum, and is very competitive, thanks to, in part, her competitive mother, Scarlett. Besides gum-chewing, she is also a practitioner of the martial arts. She takes part in the Golden Ticket contest because her mother wants her to win at everything.
• Julia Winter as Veruca Salt: A spoiled, snobby rich girl from Great Britain who is given practically anything she wants from her parents. After insisting that her rich father find her a ticket, he turned his nut factory into a candy unwrapping plant until the ticket was found. Is finally denied something at the end of the film.
• Philip Wiegratz as Augustus Gloop: A gluttonous German overeater, found his ticket by accident (and accidentally bit one corner off) on an eating binge. He eats so much candy per day that it was "almost impossible for him not to find a ticket."
• Missi Pyle as Mrs. Scarlett Beauregarde: Violet's overbearing mother who wants her daughter to win at everything.
• James Fox as Mr. Salt: Veruca's wealthy father who owns a nut-shelling factory and does whatever it takes to get what his daughter wants. However, he finally denies her something as they're leaving the factory.
• Franziska Troegner as Mrs. Gloop: Augustus' equally-gluttonous mother.
• Adam Godley as Mr. Teavee: Mike's nervous father.
• Helena Bonham Carter as Mrs. Bucket: Charlie's mother.

Music

The original music score was written by Danny Elfman, whose collaborations with director Tim Burton include Pee-Wee's Big Adventure, Beetlejuice, Batman, Edward Scissorhands, Sleepy Hollow, Mars Attacks!, Big Fish, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Corpse Bride and others. Elfman's score is based around three primary themes--a gentle family theme for the Buckets, generally set in upper woodwinds; a mystical, string-driven waltz for Willy Wonka; and a hyper-upbeat factory theme for full orchestra, Elfman's homemade synth samples and the diminutive chanting voices of the Oompa-Loompas.
