Alan Rickman is going to play the Smoking Caterpillar

There’s a remake of Alice in Wonderland coming our way! So far from the Harry Potter crew, they’ve got Helena Bonham Carter (Bellatrix Lestrange) as the Red Queen, and now, Alan Rickman (Snape) as the smoking caterpillar. Here’s the cast so far:

Mia Wasikowska as Alice
Johnny Depp as The Mad Hatter
Helena Bonham Carter as The Red Queen
Anne Hathaway as The White King
Alan Rickman as The Caterpillar
Martin Sheen as The Cheshire Cat
Matt Lucas as Tweedledee and Tweedledum
Crispin Glover as The Knave of Hearts
Eleanor Tomlinson as Fiona Chataway
Christopher Lee in an unknown role. – source

Looks pretty good – I’ll see anything with Johnny Depp in it!
