Will you be lucky enough to get a golden ticket to appear on a Netflix competition series? Now is the time to find out. Netflix has announced a new upcoming series, The Golden Ticket, based on Willy Wonka, and you can apply to be part of it here.
Contestants will need a golden ticket to enter an immersive experience, inspired by the 1964 novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and take part in the competition. Netflix says that players will then need to “adapt and strategize” to move forward in the game. Contestants will be tested, play games, and face temptations along the way as they prove their “ability to thrive in the chaos of a retro-futuristic dreamscape.”
“We are thrilled to bring the magic of The Chocolate Factory to life like never before,” said Jeff Gaspin, Vice President of Unscripted at Netflix. “This one-of-a-kind reality competition blends adventure, strategy, and social dynamics, creating an experience that is as captivating as it is unpredictable. For the first time, a lucky few won’t just have to imagine the experience — they’ll get to step inside the factory and live it.”
