Uh. Timothee looks…kinda terrible in this?
It feels like he's desperately trying to be whimsical but is awkward and unnatural at it so his performance feels super fake. If you're going to make a Wonka movie then Wonka's performance matters more than anything else.
YES! The “look at how eccentric and whimsical I am!” mannerism is rubbing me off the wrong way.
What got me was the accent he is using. It seems to keep switching all depending on the dialogue he is giving, which I found kind of distracting but maybe it’ll be better in the actual film? Who knows, I do think he is a talented actor and I really loved the first two Paddington movies so maybe this will turn out.
Agreed re: accent.
I think he’s talented too, but limited. He’s got a bit of dead eyes here and I’m not hopeful for his performance.
Paul King is the reason why I’m even remotely curious about this movie!
Gene wilder was a bit dead eyed as Wonka.
I think Moseby was in the trailer so I'm interested in that in all honesty
I normally love him, but this seems like really weird casting. The whole thing just seems off in general. I can't really put my finger on it...
Same thought, reaaaaally bad casting here. Not the right energy at all.
