Director James Bobin is getting Tim Burton‘s whole gang back together for Through the Looking Glass (aka Alice in Wonderland 2) as the sequel to 2010’s critically despised, billion dollar worldwide hit is gearing up for production and a May 27, 2016 release.
Already confirmed are Mia Wasikowska returning as Alice and Johnny Depp back as the Mad Hatter. Sacha Baron Cohen is rumored for a role and now we have confirmation Helena Bonham Carter is making readyto her as the evil Red Queen.
There are no specifics as to the film’s plot, though it will surely take inspiration from Lewis Carroll‘s 1871 novel “Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There”.
In other casting news, Carla Gugino is set to join Dwayne Johnson in Brad Peyton‘s disaster drama San Andreas in which Johnson plays a rescue-chopper pilot who treks across the earthquake-devastated state of California in search of his estranged daughter (Alexandra Daddario, Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters).
Gugino will play Johnson’s ex-wife and I have to assume by the end of the film they will have managed to sort through their differences and come together as a family once again.
We’ll find out soon enough as New Line will bring the film to theaters on June 5, 2015.
She's strong & sexy.. and by my side;) Welcome, Carla Gugino to our movie #SanAndreas Let's shoot! http://t.co/qGl4aD6sXY
