1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: Direct from Hollywood with Ryan Seacrest.

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:05,040
Speaker 2: One of the shocks that came with the release of

3
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:08,480
Speaker 2: the first official trailer for Wonka, which tells Willy Wonka's

4
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:11,320
Speaker 2: origin story, was seeing Hugh Grant playing an Oopa Lumpa,

5
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 2: the orange skin, green haired creatures best known for working

6
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 2: the chocolate factory floor. It may seem an out of

7
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 2: leftfield casting choice, but not to the film's director, Paul King,

8
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:22,840
Speaker 2: and maybe anybody who's a fan of the original book

9
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:25,759
Speaker 2: the films are based on. Paul tells Empire going back

10
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 2: to the book and reading all its poems and hearing

11
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 2: the Oopa Lumpa's voice as a very cynical, sarcastic, cruel

12
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 2: and funny, but also wicked voice, I realized that's a

13
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,840
Speaker 2: bit like Hugh. It was a real light bulb moment

14
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,879
Speaker 2: when I thought, Hugh Grant's going to be an Oopa Lumpa. Yes. Please.

15

00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,440
