Trivia: This is the first Willy Wonka movie not to receive any Academy Award nominations.
Trivia: Sylvester Stallone originally exited this film in 2017 over creative differences with producer Avi Lerner. Arnold Schwarzenegger exited as well in solidarity with Stallone. The film ended up being shelved for several years until Stallone returned, albeit in a much smaller and final role. Schwarzenegger, as well as other key actors from the franchise, ultimately did not return.
Trivia: Zack Snyder originally intended for the movie to be an R-rated spin-off "Star Wars", but Lucasfilm wasn't interested in his ideas. It was eventually retooled into a stand-alone work.
