Warner Bros. have given Golden Star Software, a publishing label of Take-Two, the rights to develop a game based on the upcoming Tim Burton-directed remake of the Roald Dahl book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The game is set to be released alongside the film next year and while nothing is confirmed yet it may feature the voice-work of some of the film's stars.

"We are very excited to be working with Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment on a videogame adaptation of Tim Burton's vision of the classic 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,'" said Christoph Hartmann, Senior Vice President of Publishing at Global Star Software, a publishing label of Take-Two. "'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' has entertained audiences around the globe for over forty years, and the bright and colorful settings, iconic storytelling and beloved characters are a perfect match for this medium."

Interactive Entertainment. "Working with Global Star, we look forward to launching an engaging video game based on this extremely imaginative property."
