Rappy Veteran Posted July 13, 2013 Veteran Share Posted July 13, 2013 Johnny Depp is in final negotiations to return as The Mad Hatter in Disney?s ?Alice in Wonderland 2.? Though it was not a film many remember as being, well, good, Disney?s ?Alice in Wonderland? was a huge success for the studio, bringing in over $1 billion. With those kinds of numbers, a sequel is almost a guarantee and Disney quickly mobilized plans for an ?Alice in Wonderland 2,? despite the fact that Tim Burton had no interest in returning (?The Muppets? director, James Bobin, was brought in as a replacement). But Deadline is reporting that Depp does have an interest in returning and is close to sealing a deal to come back for the sequel. This would come after Depp stars in ?Pirates of the Caribbean 5? for Disney. Depp?s return for ?Alice in Wonderland 2? is a surprising one, mostly because many assumed that Depp wouldn?t return without Burton. But, possibly looking to get back into franchise mode after the failure of ?The Lone Ranger,? Depp will indeed return to anchor yet another ?Alice? film. It?s unclear how much Depp will be paid for the film but considering he was paid north of $20 million for ?Lone Ranger,? we?ll assume he?s getting a pretty penny for ?Alice in Wonderland 2.? http://screencrush.com/johnny-depp-alice-in-wonderland-2/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalint Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 He is such a good actor why does he keep doing these stupid ass roles! Him and that damn Tim Burton! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawkMan Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 He is such a good actor why does he keep doing these stupid ass roles! Him and that damn Tim Burton! Because he enjoys weird roles, and because he can. And because he so fits in weird roles. That said, how is there a sequel... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sava700 Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 I agree The Lone Ranger didn't do it for me.. looked great but I came out of the theater with a headache and confused some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draconian Guppy Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 That said, how is there a sequel... +1 The original should've been called "Johnny in wonderland" and the sequel should be "Johnny in wonderland 2", they focused way too much on the mad hatter in the first one, just because of Johnny Depp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsYcHoKiLLa Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 That said, how is there a sequel... Strictly speaking the first film was a "sequel" because Alice was returning to Wonderland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klownicle Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Without Tim Burton this film will bust, I fear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
