Ok, I'll bet Billy already knows this, but guess what:
Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston are starting a production company, and the first movie they are going to produce is a remake of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory! Now that's all well and good, I guess, but here's the bad part: Tim Burton is going to be the director!! (he's the one who did Edward Scissorhands and Beetlejuice and Nightmare Before Christmas). So basically, this is probably going to be the creepy, evil version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. It hasn't even been cast yet. Who do people think should play Willy Wonka? I think Jack Nicholson would be good, or Alan Cummings or Ewan McGregor, except that the latter two are a little on the young side. Supposedly the boy who plays Ron in Harry Potter movies is being considered for the part of Charlie. Very interesting, in my opinion.
