Alice in Wonderland! 06.22.2009

Tim Burton is remaking Alice in Wonderland?! I think I’m more excited right now than I have been in a long time. Johnny Depp is the Mad Hatter and Helena Bonham Carter is the Red Queen (I loved them together in Sweeney Todd: Demon Barber of Fleet Street). Instead of being a total remake, they’re creating a sort-of sequel to the original Disney’s Alice in Wonderland. 10 years later, 17 year old Alice attends a party at a Victorian estate. She realizes she’s about to be proposed to, so she runs away, finding her way back to Wonderland via a certain white rabbit that’s been looking for her for years.
It’s kind of a mixture of some distorted live action and animation. I can’t relate it to anything because I’m not sure what to relate it to. It’s kind of new territory for me. -Tim Burton
I can’t wait to see how it turns out! The movie is due to hit theaters March 5, 2010. You will find me there, sporting 3D glasses.
