As to if Manson was asked to play Wanka, I find conflicting stories spread across the web.  However, the rumour isn't that off kilter, take a look at Manson's first albumn and its follow up.  His logo is very Wanka, he is even quoted as saying he wanted to come off as a more evil wanka.  So the Manson kids ran with it.  This either sparked a rumour, or led the production crew to actually consider it.  Could he have pulled it off?  We'll never know.  We can't discredit his acting ability, in fact we have nothing but evidence for it, he is more entertainer than musician, and is quite good at what he does, love him or hate him.  As for Depp, brilliant casting.  I think there are very very few actors I would even consider a proper fill in for Wonka, shy of genetically creating Wanka in a lab.  Dahls books were not "dark" persay, but in contrast to Wilder's performance, quite a bit darker.  Burton is just the man to bring a bit of oddity to a story that cries out for something beyond the norm.  Wonka always seemed more spooky than zaney to me anyway...  my 2 cents
