Wonder Auggie Jacob Tremblay standing at a locker looking sad
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Lionsgate's Wonder chronicles an inspiring tale about a young boy with a rare facial deformity, and due to its content, one can't help but wonder if the movie is based on a true story or completely fictional. The 2017 coming-of-age family drama film, directed by Stephen Chbosky and written by Chbosky, Steven Conrad, and Jack Thorne, stars Jacob Tremblay as the aforementioned child, Auggie.
Wonder Technically Isn't Based On A True Story The 2017 Film Is Inspired By Multiple True Stories Close Even though Wonder certainly could have been based on real people and true events, the characters in the 2017 coming-of-age family drama are purely fictional, and the plot is entirely made up. There is a caveat, though, as a real family's story doesn't inspire the narrative, but it is based on several true stories that Wonder's creator had heard over the years.
Wonder's Book Was Inspired By An Incident With Palacio's Son & The 1995 Song "Wonder" While numerous true stories influenced R. J. Palacio to write Wonder, one personal experience served as the main inspiration for the 2012 novel. According to Palacio's interview with NPR, the author was at an ice cream shop with her children a few years before she published Wonder and encountered a young girl with a severe facial deformity.
