Moon and Hunter: Where Are Wonka’s The Golden Ticket Contestants Now?

Netflix’s ‘Wonka’s The Golden Ticket’ is all about competing with a partner you absolutely trust. This not only makes the game more fun, but also raises the stakes and makes it easier to coordinate through the challenges. In season 1, brothers Moon and Hunter Church felt very optimistic about their chances in the game. They knew they would be able to get through the physical and mental challenges quickly. However, the twists in the game kept them on their toes, and they soon realized it was not as easy as they had imagined.

Moon and Hunter Church’s Pair Was Broken Up in the First Challenge

Right as they entered Wonka’s factory, Moon and Hunter Church were sent into their first challenge before they even entered the elevator. They were asked to pick two gumballs from a jar. While Hunter got the purple one, Moon picked the golden one. As a result, he was locked away, and his brother had to collect three Golden Coins to release him. Overnight, the other contestants also searched for the coins and made different deals.

When it was time to play, Moon missed out by just one coin and was eliminated. For Hunter, it was a huge shock, as he had not expected their duo to be broken up so soon. He decided to give the competition his all and sailed through most of the season. He won Wonkavision 2.0 and formed some great friendships along the way. Since he was playing solo, he was not targeted in the early eliminations either. His challenge came during the Elevator Elimination Challenge, where he lost his round and was eliminated from the season.
