Inspired by the Famous Chocolatier
As you can already tell, these prizes are inspired by the upcoming movie "Wonka" starring Timothée Chalamet as the infamous Willy Wonka himself. The film talks about the young life of the beloved chocolate maker and how he rose to prominence.
He is joined by other well-known actors, including Olivia Colman as Mrs. Scrubbit, Sally Hawkins as Willy's mother, and Hugh Grant as an Oompa-Loompa. Other A-list celebrities who are also in the movie are Keegan-Michael Key, Jim Carter, and Rowan Atkinson.
You can watch the magic-filled trailer below:
"Wonka" is set to release in theaters on December 8.
Video Game-Inspired Merch
This year has been a great one in terms of merchandise based on video game movie adaptations. "The Super Mario Bros. Movie," which has earned $1.36 billion at the box office, made a limited-edition Monopoly board game that you can play with your family and friends.
Mattel has created a number of items inspired by the popular "Barbie" movie as well. You can purchase stuff like the President Barbie T-Shirt, the "I Am Kenough" Mug, and the Kencore Fanny Pack, just to name a few.
