The eccentric candyman himself, Willy Wonka in this take is a sly and cunning yet creative and free-spirited inventor and industrialist who sees loving what you do and traditional morality as the keys to success. A witty man with a dark/gallows sense of humor and penchant for ironic punishments, Wonka's creativity, eccentricity and extreme devotion teaching others his traditional moral ideals are all underpinned by a subtle hint of madness that makes him untrustworthy to a fault. However, despite this he has a heart of gold buried deep within the labyrinth of his soul that Charlie helps bring out over the course of his adventures in the factory.
