It looks like Depp will be taking up another set of hats, but instead of going to a factory, he'll be hosting his own tea party. Filmonic reports that the Pirates of The Carribean star is rumored to play as The Mad Hatter in Tim Burton's vision of Alice in Wonderland. The film is currently set for a 2010 release.
Mia Wasikowska (star of the upcoming film, Amelia) will be following the white rabbit as Alice in Burton's film. If Depp was confirmed for the role, then the fantasy tale would be his seventh film with the Nightmare Before Christmas creator. The last project the duo were in was last year's Oscar winning Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, which won "Best Art Direction" and earned Mr. Depp a "Best Actor" nomination.
Expect this "rumor" to be confirmed in the near future. Alice In Wonderland will begin filming this November.

looks like it will indeed be eye candy! but not very kid friendly. i agree, it may be glorious to the eyes but probably not plot thick. this classic tale is amazing and full of possible variations on it's theme. why doesn't someone in hollywood wake up and make the Looking Glass Wars books into a film series like lord of the rings?? much more kid friendly and full of adventure with tons of plot!
