Actors Improvised These Famous Moments In Cinema
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
One of the most special parts of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is Gene Wilder and his performance as the factory owner. According to sources, he only accepted the role after demanding that the character is introduced with a limp-and-roll action at the start.
The performance was improvised and the other cast members had no idea what was going on. Wilder wanted audiences to be tricked by Wonka right away so that “from that time on, no one will know if I’m lying or telling the truth.”
