I wasn't particularly enamored with Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland. Yeah it was visually entertaining and the acting was solid, but it just seemed like more of the same from Burton. The man needs to stop his man-crush with Johnny Depp and do some original material. In my opinion Burton hasn't had an excellent film since Big Fish.
But I digress.
"Deadline" reports the sequel will be titled Through the Looking Glass, which incidentally is the name of the second book by author Lewis Carroll. Additionally, Sacha Baron Cohen is in early negotiations for a part. No confirmation as to the specific role but "Variety" believes it to be the main villain and "Bleeding Cool" speculates that villain will be Time.
Mia Wasikowska returns as Alice and Johnny Depp will also be back as the Mad Hatter. However, Burton won't be in the director's chair. Director James Bobin will helm the project instead.
Through the Looking Glass releases May 27, 2016.
