Silver Screen Collection/Hulton Archive/Getty Images(NEW YORK) — Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, first released in 1971, remains a much-beloved classic. But if you’re among the generations of fans who’ve never had the opportunity to see it in a movie theater, you’ll get your chance this weekend.
In honor of Willy Wonka star Gene Wilder, select Regal Entertainment Group theaters will host two screenings of Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory this Saturday.
