This December, Syfy will premiere an original movie that's breathing new life into the Lewis Carroll books Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. We’ve got some information on the movie and a recently released trailer.
What does the movie have going for it, besides being based on two very unique books? Kathy Bates and Tim Curry, for one thing. Below is some of the information Syfy released on the movie and further down is the trailer.
“Using the classic Lewis Carroll books "Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking-Glass" as a jumping off point, writer/director Nick Willing has created the modern-day story of Alice Hamilton (Caterina Scorsone), a fiercely independent twenty-something who suddenly finds herself on the other side of a looking glass. She is a stranger in an outlandish city of twisted towers and casinos built out of playing cards, all under the rule of the deliciously devilish Queen of Hearts (Oscar winner Kathy Bates) who's not very happy about Alice's arrival.Rounding out the stellar cast are Tim Curry (Rocky Horror Picture Show) as Dodo, Colm Meaney (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine) as the King of Hearts, Philip Winchester (Crusoe) as Jack Chase, Matt Frewer (Watchmen) as the White Knight, Andrew Lee Potts (Primeval) as Hatter, Harry Dean Stanton (Big Love) as the Caterpillar, Alessandro Juliani (Battlestar Galactica) as 9 of Clubs, Timothy Webber (Taken) as Carpenter, Alex Diakun (Sanctuary) as Ratcatcher, Zak Santiago (Kingdom Hospital) as 10 of Clubs, and Eugene Lipinski (Animorphs) as Doctors Dee and Dum.”
Alice will premiere on Sunday, December 6th @ 9-11pm ET/PT and air over two consecutive nights.
