If you want to use it for longer than that, you'll have to pay for a $20-a-month Meta One Premium plan. -Netflix has worked with ElevenLabs to develop a recreation of Gene Wilder's voice for use in an upcoming unscripted reality show inspired by Roald Dahl's novel Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
