Johnny Depp denies basing Wonka on Michael Jackson

Actor Johnny Depp has slammed reports he based his eccentric character Willy Wonka on troubled singer Michael Jackson - insisting the colourful role was based on a selection of children's TV show presenters.

Depp says Jackson, who was acquitted of child molestation charges last month ( June 05), would be the wrong person to base the Charlie And The Chocolate Factory character on, because the Thriller star loves kids, while Wonka dislikes them.

He says, "It never entered my mind, Michael Jackson loves children but Willy Wonka doesn't."

The true inspirations were TV hosts Captain Kangaroo, Mr Rogers and Uncle Al, who mesmerised Depp as a child.

He adds, "There were memories I have as a little kid watching children's shows and children show hosts. I distinctly remember thinking their speech pattern was strange."

this one was horrible.. Johnny Depp overdid it & nothing can beat the original - the moral of the story was executed so much better the first time around.. and Gene Wilder's performance was just a classic

I couldnt Disagree with you more. Roald Dahl hated the 1st one. Its a dark book, not a happy bedtime story. The 2nd one was much closer to the book.

the first one isnt a happy bedtime story.. Gene Wilder's character was far that - and a lot more complex than Depp's. and i am not talking about which film is closer to the book.. i just thought the 2nd one was absolutely horrible. and Depp's Wonka was fruity, not dark, imo lol.

YES! That's why I loved him!

Fegs :heart

you know your film/actors very well...
Gene Wilder was amazing.
Johnny Depp (AND IM A HUGE DEPP FAN) ruined it, he did a terrible job.
