One of the latest is World of Wonka, a game created by WMS. Over the years, a number of different slot machines have been made using this franchise as a basis. And while there are plenty of fans of 2005’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory that starred Johnny Depp, most fans are more familiar with the original 1971 musical fantasy Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, in which Gene Wilder played the titular role of the owner and manager of a magical candy factory.
Over the course of three generations, many movie fans – or just those of us with a serious sweet tooth – Willy Wonka has become a cultural institution.
