A couple weeks ago we got our first look at the amazing promo photos that have been released from Tim Burton’s new film Alice In Wonderland, featuring the beloved literary characters The Mad Hatter (played by Johnny Depp), The Red Queen (played by Helena Bonham Carter), The White Queen (played by Anne Hathaway) and more. The new issue of Vanity Fair magazine, the one with Heath Ledger on the cover, features another look at the full-size promo photos:

Meet Tim Burton’s Alice In ‘Wonderland’

Go ask Alice
Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009

Yesterday we got our first good look at director Tim Burton’s vision of Alice In Wonderland with the release of a few concept art stills from the film and a few character art promo photos (featuring The Mad Hatter, The Red Queen, The White Queen and Tweedledee & Tweedledum). Missing from the batch of new images we got to see yesterday were promo photos of main character Alice Kingsley portrayed in the film by Mia Wasikowska … today we get to see those images. Here is the character art promo photo of Tim Burton’s Alice:


As Pink reader Kristy noted in the blog comments yesterday, Mia Wasikowska was previously seen in the first season of HBO’s amazing series In Treatment. As a huge fan of the show, I was very impressed with Mia’s acting performance in the role of Sophie on In Treatment. I think she will make an excellent Alice. After the jump, check out two new promo stills from the movie each featuring Mia Wasikowska as protagonist Alice Kingsley …

Tim Burton Unveils His Vision Of ‘Alice In Wonderland’

Your movie is a 'Wonderland'
Monday, June 22nd, 2009

Last November we got our very FIRST LOOK at Johnny Depp in full make-up and costume as The Mad Hatter in Tim Burton’s new film, Alice in Wonderland. Today, we get to see a whole slew of new promo photos from the upcoming Disney film including finished character art of Depp as The Mad Hatter, Helena Bonham Carter as The Red Queen, Anne Hathaway as The White Queen and Matt Lucas as Tweedledee & Tweedledum. First up, tho, check out these very cool-looking promo pics from the film of Wonderland itself:


Burton gave us a grief-wracked demon barber in 2007’s Sweeney Todd and oodles of Oompa Loompas in 2005’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Now one of Hollywood’s most visually creative directors layers his own surreal sensibilities upon the fanciful world of Lewis Carroll in Disney’s Alice in Wonderland, due in theaters on March 5, 2010. This first look at some of the concept art for the film suggests there is the usual Burton dark magic afoot.

Yes, yes … these images are really beautiful and hint at a more sinister Wonderland than we may be accustomed to … but it is the character art that really gives you a good feel for the tone of the film. After the jump, check out the amazing promo images of The Mad Hatter, The Red Queen, The White Queen and The Tweedles …

First Look: Johnny Depp As The Mad Hatter

Your body movie is a 'Wonderland'
Monday, November 17th, 2008

Gothy film director Tim Burton is hard at work on a new big screen live-action adaptation of Alice In Wonderland and, of course, Johnny Depp has been cast in a major role. HERE is our first look at Depp in full costume as The Mad Hatter:


As far as Mad Hatters go, I don’t think Depp is as jovial as Disney’s version but looks more menacing than the Batman villain. I think I like this look … it’s deffo very Burton. What do y’all think?
