Does anyone know whether Artbox are going to do a Willy wonka trading cards in connection to the film.

Happy NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!

Hmm that would be cool.

Although they would overproduce it

Anyway - I believe Darren of Cards Inc has been sniffing around the set, meeting Depp etc., so they probably have some license of some sort (for lithographs, bobble heads (ick) or collectables of some sort).

It looks unlikely that they have the trading card license (if there is one) because it's not on CI 2004 line up. The only thing on there that offers hope is:

### Unanounced Movie License ##  - Sticards          
(2nd June 2005)

Does that coincide at all with the film's release? And sticards are weird sticker/trading card hybrids...

I wonder ??

Ahh well only time will tell.

Artbox is a safe bet for this set, well the last I heard anyway.

Cool - any idea when the films out folks?

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is currently in post-production, and according to IMDB will be released starting
13 July in France,
15 July in USA and
1 September in Australia.  

Love how they make us Aussies wait!

Oooh - I can't wait! It sucks we have to wait over a month and a half after most of the world to see it though

1. Charlie and the CF is one of my all time fave books
2. A minute possibility Mr Depp may be signing some cards! Yahooooooooo!

One would hope that he would sign this time - unlike the Sleepy Hollaw debacle Inkworks had with him They even went so far as to issue "Redemption" cards for his autograph that (rumour has it) never materialized
