Johnny Depp’s Mad Hatter Terrifies Me

I haven’t liked a Tim Burton movie in a long time but his take on Alice in Wonderland may finally get me back in his corner.  Behold, Johnny Depp as the The Mad Hatter:

We’ve reported on this before with a photo of Alice attached.  However, the picture you see above is the official production photo.  If you follow the link to USA Today you can see more pictures, including Helena Bonham Carter as the Red Queen, Anne Hathaway as The White Queen and some of the artistic designs.  Obviously, they are going in a brand new direction for the film and from what I’ve heard, it’s gong to be a real trip.  The film is scheduled for March 5, 2010.  I gotta admit, it looks pretty dang cool.

Try not to look into Depp’s eyes too long.  He’s freaking me out.
