- "I feel sorry for Wonka. It's gonna cost him a fortune in fudge."
— Augustus Gloop
Augustus Gloop is one of the five kids of the 1971 film, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, played by Michael Bollner.
Background[]
He is from a small town Duselheim in Western Germany. His father is a butcher.
Film[]
When he is interviewed about what it feels like to be the first Golden Ticket finder, he mentions he feels hungry.
Personality[]
Despite eating constantly, this version of Augustus has decent table manners, is not as obese as he is in the book, and is polite and friendly to Charlie and the other three finalists. When he falls into the chocolate river while drinking from it, Charlie shows empathy and tries to rescue him by using a giant lollipop (that Mike Teavee hands first to Grandpa Joe) for Augustus to hold and be pulled out, but Augustus is pulled beneath the surface and sucked up the extraction pipe leading to the Fudge Room. His endgame is not shown, with only Wonka's insistence to Charlie that all four bad children would remain intact.
Augustus' song []
Oompa loompa doompety doo
I've got a perfect puzzle for you
Oompa loompa doompety dee
If you are wise you'll listen to me
What do you get when you guzzle down sweets?
Eating as much as an elephant eats
What are you at, getting terribly fat?
What do you think will come... of... that?
I don't like the look of it
Oompa loompa doompety da
If you're not greedy, you will go far
You will live in happiness too
Like the Oompa Loompa Doompety do
Doompety do
Trivia[]
- Augustus Gloop was referenced by Jax in the second episode of The Amazing Digital Circus.
