Their roles in this origin story are yet to be revealed, but they all seem like a stellar choice. Colman is the critically acclaimed Academy Award winner, Hawkins has two Oscar nominations under her belt, Atkinson is one of Britain’s biggest comedy legends of his generation, and Carter received several Emmy nominations for his role on Downton Abbey.

This amazing quartet is just the latest addition to the cast of Wonka, also set to include Timothée Chalamet and Keegan-Michael Key. The rest of the supporting cast has also been announced, and it will feature Mathew Baynton, Tom Davis, Simon Farnaby, Rakhee Thakrar, and Natasha Rothwell, among others.

Wonka is being directed by Paul King, and it will tell the story of a young Willy Wonka, prior to the opening of his world’s most famous chocolate factory. The highly-anticipated musical is set to open in theaters on March 17th, 2023.

This exciting project will reimagine the origin story of Father Christmas, and focus on ordinary boy Nikolas who’s on a quest to find his father who left home to search for the fabled village of the elves called Elfhelm.

A Boy Called Christmas will be directed by Gil Kenan, who previously received an Oscar nomination for his animated film Monster House. The script that he co-wrote alongside Ol Parker is based on the first in the series of books written by Matt Haig.

Wiig, Hawkins, and Smith aren’t the only actors who already accepted roles in this project. A Boy Called Christmas will also star Jim Broadbent, Zoe Colletti, Toby Jones, and Michiel Huisman.

The movie will be shot in Lapland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, and London. It’s still unclear when it’s going to premiere, but something tells us we should expect it just in time for Christmas next year.
