The spring expo will be held at the Hilton Parsippany in Parsippany, New Jersey from April 29 to May 1. In the past, Chiller Expo has been successful in reuniting casts of popular movies and TV shows. That tradition will continue as the original stars of the 1971 “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory” take the stage to sign autographs and pose for pictures with the folks who grew up loving that film.

Peter Ostrum (Charlie Bucket), Paris Themmen (Mike Tee Vee), Julie Dawn Cole (Veruca Salt), Denise Nickerson (Violet Beauregard), and Michael Boeliner (Augustus Gloop) will share their stories of the making of the film on the 40th anniversary of its release.
