First Look: Tim Burton's 'Alice in Wonderland'

Filed under: Fandom », Movie Marketing », Images »



Yesterday we reported on a Disney meeting which featured the first image of Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter in Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland -- and, remember, we told you that the audience were all happy-go-lucky and whatnot with their oohhs and ahhs? At the same meeting, it was announced that in the next issue of D23 (or Disney Twenty-Three) -- Disney's pricey quarterly magazine -- there would be a first look at Wonderland alongside an interview with Burton. 24 hours later, scans of the Wonderland feature in D23 have arrived online -- including the image above of Alice (newcomer Mia Wasikowska) presumably looking down the rabbit hole. Additionally, the scans also show concept art of the famous tea party, hosted by the Mad Hatter (see below). In the article, Burton refers to the film as "kind of a mixture of some distorted live action and animation." We'll update this post when better images arrive online, but in the meantime check out larger versions of these two in the gallery below and the rest over at TimBurtonCollective.

Is This Johnny Depp as The Mad Hatter?

At the request of the studio, we have removed this photo.



An image of Johnny Depp as The Mad Hatter in Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland has arrived online via something called Fangirl Magazine, and my initial feelings are that it's a fake -- something some fan doctored-up in an attempt to have a little fun with the online community. Also, since Depp's Mad Hatter will most likely be presented to us in motion capture, this image (if real) would have to either be concept art or, perhaps, a painting of the character that may or may not show up in the background of a scene. It is quite creepy, though, the way he clutches that rabbit -- and so if this is fan made, kudos to its creator. That said, I'd expect the final version to have a little more color ... but it probably won't be too far off from this. Here are two real images from the set. What do you think?

Check out a larger version of the above image in the gallery below alongside a few other versions of the classic character for comparison.


Countdown: Two Photos of Tim Burton's 'Alice in Wonderland'

Filed under: Fandom », Johnny Depp », Images »



Back when I was in London, word had it Tim Burton was in pre-production on his Alice in Wonderland -- but it seems the director has begun shooting some of his live-action scenes for the film, and a bunch of spy photos featuring Mia Wasikowska (Alice) have arrived online via INF. The images also include shots of Burton's main squeeze Helena Bonham Carter whose baby is all dressed up in period garb ... preparing for a cameo, perhaps? Of course, Johnny Depp was just officially announced as the Mad Hatter, and the final product will be a mix of live action and motion-capture animation. One imagines the scenes featuring Alice before she arrives in Wonderland (ie: these two photos) will be shot in live action, with the majority of the Wonderland stuff all in motion-capture. Oooh, this flick is gonna be freaky ...
