I am such a fangurl when it comes to any Tim Burton/Johnny Depp project! In turn, I've been salivating like Pavlov's dog ever since I heard about Burton and Depp taking on Lewis Carroll's classic headtrip "Alice In Wonderland" (my fave story as a child).
Now Burton has cast his girlfriend Helena Bonham-Carter and the gorgeous Anne Hathaway in the movie! We all knew Helena would get a part, she always does. It's Anne that I'm excited about. Loved her ever since
Princess Diaries.
From
The Hollywood Reporter:
"Anne Hathaway, who is generating buzz for her performance in "Rachel Getting Married," has signed for a role in "Alice in Wonderland," which Tim Burton is directing for Disney. Helena Bonham Carter also has joined the film.
The movie, which stars Mia Wasikowska as Alice and Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter, will use a combination of live action and performance-capture technology to tell the Lewis Carroll story.
Hathaway is playing the White Queen, a benevolent monarch who is deposed and banished by her sister, the Red Queen (Carter), who has an affinity for crying out, "Off with their heads!" The White Queen needs Alice to slay a creature known as the Bandersnatch."
My question is... WHEN ARE WE GETTING SOME TEASER TRAILERS, BURTON?!?! Huh? Huh? HUH?!?! *twitchtwitchdrool* Come on! Just a little teaser? Please? PLEEEEEEAAASE?!
I've loved all of Burton/Depp's collaborations but I have a feeling this one is going to be my favorite. Like
Legend,
Labyrinth,
The Neverending Story and
The Princess Bride, children will probably be watching this edition of Alice for many generations to come. CAN'T WAIT!
Bring it on, Burton/Depp! "Off with their heads!" hehe ;-)
