The Walt Disney Studios has
released an IMAX trailer and a fresh new clip for James Bobin's ("The
Muppets") Alice Through the Looking Glass.
In this sequel to Tim Burton's
2010 box-office hit, Alice Kingsleigh (Mia Wasikowska) returns to the whimsical
realm of Underland and her friends the White Rabbit (Michael Sheen), Cheshire
Cat (Stephen Fry), and the Mad Hatter (Johnny Depp), who has lost his
Muchness. To help him retrieve it, Alice embarks on a perilous journey through
time, meeting friends and foes at different points in their lives.
Alice Through the Looking
Glass marks the last performance/voice work given by Alan Rickman, who
passed away earlier this year. In the film, Rickman gives voice to Absolem, the blue caterpillar.
Opening on
May 27, Alice Through the Looking Glass also stars Sacha Baron Cohen, Helena Bonham Carter, Anne
Hathaway, Timothy Spall, Matt Lucas, Andrew Scott, Ed Speleers, Toby Jones, and
Rhys Ifans.
In Disney’s “Alice Through the Looking Glass,” an
all-new spectacular adventure featuring the unforgettable characters from Lewis
Carroll’s beloved stories, Alice returns to the whimsical world of Underland
and travels back in time to save the Mad Hatter. Directed by James Bobin, who
brings his own unique vision to the spectacular world Tim Burton created on
screen in 2010 with “Alice in Wonderland,” the film is written by Linda
Woolverton based on characters created by Lewis Carroll and produced by Joe
Roth, Suzanne Todd and Jennifer Todd and Tim Burton with John G. Scotti serving
as executive producer. “Alice Through the Looking Glass” reunites the all-star
cast from the worldwide blockbuster phenomenon, including: Johnny Depp, Anne
Hathaway, Mia Wasikowska and Helena Bonham Carter along with the voices of Alan
Rickman, Stephen Fry, Michael Sheen and Timothy Spall. We are also introduced
to several new characters: Zanik Hightopp (Rhys Ifans), the Mad Hatter’s father
and Time himself (Sacha Baron Cohen), a peculiar creature who is part human,
part clock.
Alice Kingsleigh (Wasikowska) has spent the past few
years following in her father’s footsteps and sailing the high seas. Upon her
return to London, she comes across a magical looking glass and returns to the
fantastical realm of Underland and her friends the White Rabbit (Sheen),
Absolem (Rickman), the Cheshire Cat (Fry) and the Mad Hatter (Depp), who is not
himself. The Hatter has lost his Muchness, so Mirana (Hathaway) sends Alice on
a quest to borrow the Chronosphere, a metallic globe inside the chamber of the
Grand Clock which powers all time. Returning to the past, she comes across
friends – and enemies – at different points in their lives, and embarks on a
perilous race to save the Hatter before time runs out. Presented in Digital
3D™, Real D 3D and IMAX® 3D, Disney’s “Alice Through the Looking Glass” opens
in U.S. theaters on May 27, 2016.
