Beetlejuice Beetlejuice was a wildly successful return to director Tim Burton's movie franchise, and the possibilities for a third Beetlejuice film are endless.

Leading on nicely from Heartstopper season 2's ending, season 3's story keeps the stories of Nick,...

Dahl thought Gene Wilder's portrayal of Willy Wonka was too soft and believed there was something wrong with the character's soul in the movie. Despite conflicting reports about Dahl's feelings towards the original film, his strong dislike may have led him to deny the rights for Charlie and the Glass Elevator to be adapted.

Due to the immense success of the film Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, a sequel might appear to have been an obvious choice. However, there is one particular obstacle that prevented its production. British author, Roald Daul, has been aptly dubbed one of the greatest storytellers of the 20th century, and he is responsible for the creation of many children's hits, including The Bfg, Matilda, and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
