Update: The Producers of Tim Burton's "Alice in Wonderland" Announced

Playbill News has stated that Richard D. Zanuck, Joe Roth with Suzanne and Jennifer Todd will produce Tim Burton's upcoming Alice in Wonderland at Disney. Roth and the two Todds are first-time Burton collaborators, but Richard D. Zanuck has produced every live-action film by Tim Burton since 2001's Planet of the Apes. The article also stated that production for Alice will commence in January 2008. Burton will not be working on Alice and his stop-motion remake of Frankenweenie simultaneously. Instead, production on the upcoming animated film about a boy and his resurrected dog will begin after Alice. Walt Disney Pictures is expecting production on Alice to be finished by the end of May 2008.

I actually find all of this news (if it's really true; to me it feels like it came out of no where) a little disappointing to be honest. A Burton "Alice in Wonderland" should be good--that idea crossed my mind when I was in eighth grade, actually. And "Frankenweenie" as a stop-motion film should be good too. But I would really like to see Tim Burton--my favorite artist--touch some unexplored territory. Tell a story that hasn't been told before. "Sweeney Todd", "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory"... All great, but I want to see what his imagination is really capable of. (Not to mention I am not a fan of motion capture at all.)

i completely agree, thats exactly how ive been feeling ever since "Charlie" ive been praying his next film would be something completely new. enough of this re-imagining stuff, im waiting for another Edward or Beetlejuice.

I love Burton but aside from ES, BJ and Ed Wood, i realized all of his films hes directed have been based off something already existing

PeeWee - tv show
Batman/Returns - tv show/comic book
Mars Attacks - trading cards
Sleepy Hollow - book/movie
Planet of the Apes - movie
Big Fish - book
Charlie - book/movie
Corpse Bride - folktale
Sweeny - play

Despite being an original idea at one point, Frankenweenie is now a remake of itself. Id love to see the mans imagination not be limited by the material!

And whats with using motion capture! id rather see a stop-motion character alongside live actors than a computer since both are obvious special effects - at least i could appreciate the beauty of stop-motion!

i like your idea of stop-motion animation/live actors. that would be pretty sweet to see in an Alice movie.

but i also agree...i find this new disappointing. Alice's Adventures In Wonderland? meh. that book has been adapted into sooo many movies, it's kinda ridiculous. on the plus, with Tim doing it, it'll probably be really close to the book. his book adaptations tend to stay pretty faithful to the source material.

Frankenweenie? again with the Frankenstein based material? this is the third time he'll be covering the subject matter (the Frankenweenie short and Edward Scissorhands being the first two).

i feel like he's stalling with these latest projects. i was really looking forward to Believe It Or Not! with Jim Carrey. that sounded promising.

The Alice in Wonderland thing sounds interesting..but it has been monstrously over done..again and again. I didn't care much for Frankenweenie, but maybe he'll make it more interesting. But I totally agree, I like his "new visions" of these already made things..but I miss his old, original work. BRING BACK THE TIM I FELL IN LOVE WITH!!!!

Same here: I would like to see him work on an original script again - his best movies have come from original scripts: Vincent, Edward Scissorhands, Ed Wood, Nightmare Before Christmas. In addition, I have mixed feelings about the nature of both projects too. Alice In Wonderland is potentially very Burtonish material, but even too much: it seems to be a predictable choice in the end (how many fans have been saying "I wish he did Alice in Wonderland"?). Moreover, there are so many versions of that story around, and more on their way.

As far as Frankenweenie is concerned, why remaking something that worked so well in the first place? Plus, I'm not sure it's worth extending it to a feature film. I like it as it is in the half an hour version.

However, I'm a bit curious about how Burton can deal with 3D capture motion (even though I'm not too keen on that technique)... Something interesting/new may come out of it...

TIM BURTON is amazing anthing he touches is amazing I hate Alice in wonderland but I'll go see it if tim is making it plus who cares that a lot of his movies r made from books or other things tim takes those things and makes them into his own!

I liked the story but I always hated the films. I know that Burton will do his best to make the film as odd and unique as possible and he might be able to make me like the film.

I wonder if they have said anything about the cast? I just thought that Evanna Lynch could play Alice...she's Luna in the 5th Harry Potter film.
