Alan Rickman joins Alice in Wonderland

From EW:

Is it just me, or did Alan Rickman's promo pic for Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves strongly foreshadow his upcoming role as the hookah-smoking caterpillar in Tim Burton's adaptation of Alice in Wonderland? Alan Rickman's the latest star to sign on for what's shaping up to be the weirdest movie ever. Johnny Depp will be The Mad Hatter, as we know. Also on board: In Treatment's Mia Wasikowska as Alice, Helena Bonham Carter as The Red Queen, Anne Hathaway as The White Queen, and Crispin Glover as the Knave of Hearts. Christopher Lee will be involved as something (The White Knight, maybe?), and Danny Elfman will do the music.

I didn't know Alice was the girl in In Treatment! She is amazingly talented. Can this movie get more perfect? Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter, and Alan Rickman as anything I will just love. Crispin Glover also has the perfect otherworldly look. Awesome!
