The hype for Alice in Wonderland has only continued to grow over the past few months, so you can imagine my excitement when I got to interview a few of its stars. First up was Anne Hathaway and Tim Burton’s go-to muse (on screen and off), Helena Bonham Carter. The actresses portray the sisterly duo of the Red Queen (Bonham Carter) and the White Queen (Hathaway) in the story’s retelling, and they continued to play off one another even when the film had wrapped. Watch as they speak about how they lobbied for their parts and, yes, Bonham Carter’s ginormous head.

Tim Burton’s trippy depiction of Lewis Carroll’s beloved tale ‘Alice in Wonderland’ (releasing March 5) is sure to captivate audiences with its dazzling imagery and astonishing cast. Just make sure not to expect a remake; it’s more a sequel of sorts.
Set several years after Alice’s first trip down the rabbit hole, the film follows her adventure back to the enchanting fantasy world she once knew. Once there, she reunites with familiar friends, all having maintained their peculiar nature, and must face the wrath of her nemesis, the Red Queen.
Taking on the title role of Alice is porcelain-faced Aussie actress Mia Wasikowska, previously of HBO’s critically-acclaimed series ‘In Treatment.’ Among the cast joining the budding star are Burton’s long-time partner Helena Bonham Carter as the Red Queen, Johnny Depp as an appropriately eerie Mad Hatter and Anne Hathaway as the eccentric White Queen.
On Saturday, Feb. 20, ‘Alice’ stars Mia Wasikowska, Anne Hathaway and Helena Bonham Carter will be stopping by our studio for an Unscripted interview using your questions. Ask them how long it took to transform into their bizarre characters. Or maybe you’re wondering what it’s like for Helena to work so closely with partner Tim Burton. You can ask anything you want, just make sure you submit your question in the comments section below before Friday, Feb. 19 and that you include your name and location. Come back here on Monday, March 1 to see if your question made the cut!
