The original Charlie & the Chocolate Factory was released 44 years ago… making us feel about 100!
But this week a few of the cast reunited on the TODAY show in the US and let’s just say they’ve changed quite a bit.
Not that we expected them to stay the same of course (44 years is a LONG time) but we thought we would have recognised a few of them.
Charlie – then and now (image: TODAY).
Check out what Charlie (Peter Ostrum), Veruca Salt (Julie Dawn Cole), Augustus Gloop (Michael Bollner), Violet Beauegarde (Denise Nickerson), Mike Teevee (Paris Themmen) and one of the Oompa Loompas (Rusty Goffe) look like now.
The group, who has managed to stay in touch over the years, also spilled a few juicy secrets about the filming of the hit movie.
