Johnny Depp will team up with Tim Burton anew as the Mad Hatter in Alice In Wonderland. We get the following scoop thanks to This Is Plymouth via the Movieweb:
This is Plymouth has reported that Tim Burton will head to Plymouth, England for two weeks in September to shoot his upcoming live action/performance capture project Alice in Wonderland. Also mentioned in the article is the fact that Johnny Depp is reportedly up for the role of the Mad Hatter.
Well we heard rumors going around last week that this may be the case, and now we have confirmation. I don’t think this will surprise many, Burton and Depp have a long successful history together and I think the role will suit Johnny just fine.
I am curious to see what a Tim Burton Alice In Wonderland film will look like and am more than pleased that Mr. Depp will be the Mad Hatter.
