Netflix's unscripted competition series *Wonka's The Golden Ticket* will feature a recreated voice of Gene Wilder, generated by ElevenLabs with consent from Wilder's estate. The nine-part series, filmed on the Gold Coast, premieres globally on September 23 with a two-part finale on September 30. Karen B. Wilder endorsed the use on behalf of the estate, stating, "More than five decades after Gene brought Willy Wonka to life, people of all ages and backgrounds around the world continue to find joy, laughter and inspiration in his performance." Actor Rusty Goffe, who played an Oompa Loompa in the original 1971 film, will reprise the role. The Netflix-ElevenLabs recreation signals that high-fidelity voice synthesis has moved into premium entertainment production, foregrounding consent provenance, on-air disclosure practices, and the need for synthetic audio watermarking and detection benchmarks.
