Timothée Chalamet’s Wonka has beaten major 2023 releases and has become a hit at the box office

Timothée Chalamet’s Wonka has charmed audiences across the world, and the film has now become a hit at the box office. The film received positive reviews from critics and audiences and is still the number 1 film at the box office (Via Variety). Chalamet has become a brand of his own, and his star power has driven the film to success.

Made on a $125 million budget, Wonka has now made $465 million (via Box Office Mojo) after the fourth week of release. The film has already beaten the box office gross (via Box Office Mojo) of all 2023 DC films Shazam 2 ($133million), The Flash ($270 million), Blue Beetle ($129 million), and Aquaman 2 ($334 million and counting). The film has also beaten The Marvels ($205 million via Box Office Mojo) and is sure to beat Ant-Man 3 ($476 million via Box Office Mojo) in the coming days.

This new high in Chalamet’s career will surely create more excitement and anticipation for his upcoming epic Dune: Part 2. One can certainly expect some fireworks at the box office when the film releases, and it may even become a bigger hit than Wonka as the first film already has a cult following among audiences.

Timothée Chalamet Drops A Huge Spoiler For Dune Part 3

Timothée Chalamet’s Paul Atreides declares war on the Harkonnens in Dune: Part 2

Timothée Chalamet is returning as Paul Atreides in the much-awaited Dune: Part 2. The first film is already a much beloved one, and fans are excited about the full-blown war between House Atreides (teaming up with the Freemen) and House Harkonnen. Chalamet recently talked about the upcoming project while also revealing a big spoiler for a potential third film.

The actor nonchalantly revealed that Jason Momoa’s character Duncan Idaho (who died in part 1 while defending Paul Strides and his family) will come back in the third film. He points out that the information is not really a secret since Frank Herbert’s books have existed for 70 years. He told MTV,

“Momoa will be back. Not in this one, but [in Dune Messiah]. Yeah, if you read the books… It’s so weird because they’re so secretive about the script and the trailer, but [the books] have been out there for 70 years.”

For now, fans are waiting in high anticipation for the second part, which will be released in theatres on March 1, 2024. The ensemble cast of the film includes Chalamet, Rebecca Ferguson, Josh Brolin, Stellan Skarsgård, Dave Bautista, Austin Butler, Florence Pugh, Christopher Walken, and Léa Seydoux.
