===Personality===
Veruca is spoiled, arrogant, rotten and downright cranky. Even Grandpa Joe explains to Charlie that she is a child spoiled by her father regardless. She usually got everything she wanted and puts on a charming demeanor However, she grew infuriated when her father didn't get her what she demanded. Her spoiled demeanor came from her parents pampering her with anything she demanded of. Veruca was also lazy, as she never found the Golden Ticket herself. Her main catchphrase was "I want it now!" when she didn't get what she wanted, showing that her temperamental nature stands together.
Later at the end of the 2005 film, when she demands of her father to buy her a floating glass elevator, he denies her of her demand and says all she will recieve is a bath for the day, implying he no longer is blinded by his daughter as his "Precious little princess," but rather a daughter he spoiled and one that needs to learn discipline.
