Alice by Burton: Says Wikipedia


hey curious ones. i looked up Alice In Wonderland by Tim Burton at work yesterday (as well as other things) because as you know many things are blocked there now. so i went to the all holy (j/k) Wikipedia to see what they had to say about the Alice film by Tim Burton, and i found out some new things...

-it will definitely be based off both books, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass

-it will be combining live action, motion capture technology, and stop motion techniques

-release date says March 19, 2010...not March 5th, damn it!

-music will be done by the one & only Danny Elfman, yay!!!

-here's some interesting things about the cast & characters:

-Helena Bonham Carter's head will be increased in size 3 times as The Red Queen, but Anne Hathaway's The White Queen character won't have any digital manipulation. Hathaway sums up her character as "cute but psycho, it evens out."

-Alan Rickman (as the Caterpillar) will have his face composited onto a computer-generated character (and that was pretty obvious!)

-Matt Lucas will play both Tweedledee & Tweedledum

-Alice's sister will be in it, but i'm not sure for how long...as well as an "unfriendly" girl Alice knows before she falls down the rabbit hole

-Michael Sheen is in the film but he denied reports that he plays the Cheshire Cat. Another source is crediting him as the White Rabbit...and yeah, what about the White Rabbit? didn't think about him in my last update.

-Christopher Lee, Stephen Fry, Tim Pigott-Smith, Geraldine James, and Frances de la Tour have unnamed roles.
