New “Alice In Wonderland” Trailer

Another day, another Tim Burton film starring Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter (Burton’s wife). Fortunately, despite the predictable casting, Burton’s films tend to be quite good (at least in my opinion).
This time, he has adapted the Lewis Carroll classic, Alice in Wonderland, which many of us have seen as an animated Disney movie. Disney is involved again but this live-action version looks a lot creepier. While the cartoon had a colorful landscape (that felt inspired by LSD), this movie is darker but visually stunning. I think that it represents the book more accurately but, of course, I haven’t seen the whole movie so I really shouldn’t assume.

Aside from Depp (as the Mad Hatter) and Carter (as the Red Queen), the cast is excellent – Alan Rickman (the Caterpillar), Michael Sheen (the White Rabbit), Anne Hathaway (The White Queen) and so many more. The role of Alice will be brought to life by the relatively unknown Mia Wasikowska (In Treatment, Defiance, Amelia).
The film premieres on March 5, 2010 but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the trailers until then. Check it out and tell me what you think!
