WARNER BROS. Home Entertainment celebrates the 50th Anniversary of the family classic “Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory” with its 4K Ultra HD (physical disc and digital) release on June 29.
Directed by Mel Stuart from a screenplay by British author Roald Dahl, who wrote the 1964 novel “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,” with Stan Margulies and David L. Wolper as producers.
