เจาะลึก Wonka's The Golden Ticket: เนื้อเรื่อง การสร้าง และเสียงวิจารณ์

Wonka's The Golden Ticket is an American reality competition television series that premiered on Netflix on September 23, 2026. It is based on Roald Dahl's novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and the 1971 film Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory.

Twelve pairs with a pre-existing relationship enter a recreated chocolate factory with a partner and compete in a series of challenges for a cash prize described as a "lifetime supply of money" – $3 million paid over 30 years.

The first seven episodes of season 1 were released on September 23, with the final two episodes released on September 30.

Premise

Contestants receive chocolate bars that may contain a Golden Ticket, those who find one bring a partner into the factory. Once inside they take part in physical games, tests of judgment, and various temptations built around elements from the original story. The elements include a chocolate river, lickable wallpaper, a forced-perspective hallway, and “Wonkavision” challenges. Contestants are eliminated until one winner remains.

The series has no traditional host and the voice of Willy Wonka is an AI recreation of Gene Wilder's performance from the 1971 film, created with the consent of his estate. Additionally, American TV hosts Nick Cannon, Howie Mandel, Wayne Brady each appear as guest hosts for TV themed challenges in "WonkaVision 2.0". They appear virtually.

Contestants

The 12 pairs were revealed on September 22, 2026.

Other Appearances

Oompa-Loompa performers include Rusty Goffe, Ben Goffe, Mitchell Marion, Tiffany Sarich, Beccy Benjamin, Ash Hodgkinson, Dane Noonan, Daniel Stone, and Alivia McCarthy. Peter Ostrum (the original Charlie Bucket), David Chang, Sean Evans, Nick Cannon, Howie Mandel, Wayne Brady and Zach King also made cameo appearances.

Production

The series was produced by Eureka Productions, a Fremantle company, for Netflix. It was made in collaboration with the Roald Dahl Story Company and the Gene Wilder Estate. Executive producers are Chris Culvenor, Paul Franklin, Rikkie Proost, David Tibballs, Alison Holloway, and Emer Harkin.

Filming took place at Village Roadshow Studios on the Gold Coast in Australia. Additional filming took place for exterior factory scenes at the White Bay Power Station in Sydney. The production built an 88,000-square-foot (8,200 m2) set across three studios that includes a 27,000-US-gallon (100,000 L) chocolate river. It was reported as the largest set ever constructed in Australia for a television production of this kind. The project received support from Australian location incentives and Screen Queensland.

Rusty Goffe, who appeared as an Oompa-Loompa in the 1971 film, returns for the series in his final acting role. Goffe stated, "I started on Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, and now Wonka's The Golden Ticket is my swan song. I've just ended my career on Willy Wonka. Isn't that wonderful?". He is joined by a new group of performers that includes his son Ben Goffe.

Release

Netflix announced the series on June 30, 2026, releasing a teaser the same day. A full trailer followed in August. The first seven episodes of the season premiered on September 23, 2026, and the remaining two episodes, comprising the season finale, were released on September 30, 2026.

Reception

Early critical response was mixed to negative. Reviewers generally praised the scale and detail of the factory sets while criticizing the use of an AI recreation of Gene Wilder's voice and describing the challenges as formulaic. Several comparisons were made to earlier Netflix competition series such as Squid Game: The Challenge.
