All The Wonder

Christopher Lee (pictured), Alan Rickman and Eleanor Tomlinson have all joined the cast of Tim Burton's new take of "Alice in Wonderland" according to reports via Digital Spy and This Is Hull & East Riding.

While rhe legendary Lee's role is not yet known Rickman will play the hookah-smoking Caterpillar.

Tomlinson will play a complete new character Fiona Chataway, a spiteful peer of Alice (Mia Wasikowska).

Whichever direction Burton goes here and no matter how things turn out... ya gotta admit he's assembled quite a cast here.

Meantime-composer Danny Elfman confirms that he'll be scoring the project for Burton with whom he's worked on a dozen projects over the past 2 decades-plus.

The film, which uses a combination of live action and performance-capture technology is scheduled for release in 2010.
