Timothée Chalamet's 'Wonka' Premiere Outfit Sparks Controversy Amid Boycott Calls

The actor's light purple suit, a nod to his character Willy Wonka, has drawn mixed reactions on social media as the film faces backlash over a recent Saturday Night Live sketch.

Timothée Chalamet, the star of the upcoming film 'Wonka', attended the movie's premiere in Tokyo dressed in a light purple suit, presumably a nod to his character Willy Wonka's iconic purple coat.
Chalamet's outfit, designed by Prada, sparked mixed reactions on social media, with some users comparing him to a 'grape flavored condom' and a 'future Oompa-Loompa'.
The film 'Wonka', set to release on December 15, is a prequel to Roald Dahl's 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' and explores the origins of the character Willy Wonka.
Alongside Chalamet, the film features a star-studded cast including Hugh Grant, Olivia Colman, and Rowan Atkinson.
The film and Chalamet have faced controversy recently, with calls for a boycott of the film following a joke about Hamas made by Chalamet on Saturday Night Live.
