How they filmed the scene with the squirrels in 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' 🍬🐿 🎥 thefilmzone | No Film School

In the 2005 movie Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the squirrel scene in Willy Wonka’s Nut Room used real squirrels instead of just computer effects. Trainers worked for months to teach about 40 squirrels to crack nuts, sit on stools, and handle objects. While some CGI and robotics helped with a few parts, most of the scene shows the real squirrels doing their tricks on camera. | Historyinmemes
