Walt Disney Pictures has released the first promotional photos from Tim Burton’s 3D re-imagining of Alice in Wonderland. Above you can see the first official photo of Johnny Depp as a freakish looking Mad Hatter, Helena Bona Carter as the Red Queen (”Off With Their Heads”), and Anne Hathaway as the very pale-looking The White Queen. After the jump we’ve included newly confirmed details about the films plot (did you know its a kind of a sequel?) and concept art that shows the White Rabbit (Michael Sheen), the egg-shaped Tweedledee and Tweedledum (Matt Lucas) and more.
Alice in Wonderland
The USA Today article where the images made their grand premiere, confirms our previous report that the film is actually a sequel to the original story in some ways. The movie begins at a party held at a Victorian estate where Alice, now 17, finds out they she is about to be proposed to in front of hundreds of snooty high society types and makes a run for it. Of course, she ends up following a white rabbit down a hold, back to Wonderland, a place where she visited a decade prior. The White Rabbit is convinced he has the right girl but Alice doesn’t remember he past visit to Wonderland. The creatures of Wonderland are ready to revolt and are hoping/waiting for Alice to help them.

Other details revealed in the article include: The Red Queen has a moat filled with bobbing noggins, The White Queen is beautiful but eccentric, and floats around instead of walking, and Johnny Depp employs an accent for the Hatter that producer Richard Zanuck can only describe as “indescribable”.

I’ve seen most of this art before at previous Disney industry events, and as I’ve stated in the past, I’m loving the Burton-styled look. I know some people will complain that this film looks too dark, but I actually wish some of it was darker. I’m not sure what to think about Depp of Carter’s digitally enhanced appearances. It will be interesting to see what they look like in motion. Head on over to USA Today to see non-cropped, much higher resolution versions of the above concept art. Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland will hit theaters on March 5th 2010.
