No matter how you feel about Tim Burton‘s uneven work (Mars Attacks? Planet of the Apes?), there’s one thing that cannot be denied: His films are a visual treat.
Next year, the director will introduce Alice in Wonderland, an adaptation of the Lewis Carroll story. The movie, which uses live action and performance-capture technology, will be offered in 3-D.

Burton’s seven-time collaborator, Johnny Depp, stars as The Mad Hatter while Tim’s real-life girlfriend, Helena Bonham Carter, plays The Red Queen. (USA Today reports that the royal character will have a moat filled with bobbing heads to go with her famous “Off with the heads!” line.) Anne Hathaway was cast as The White Queen.
The remaining lineup includes Alan Rickman (The Caterpillar), Michael Sheen (The Cheshire Cat), Crispin Glover (The Knave of Hearts), Christopher Lee (The Jabberwock) and Mia Wasikowska (Alice).
Alice in Wonderland opens March 5, 2010.
