(andPOP) - Director Tim Burton has found his Wonderland queens in the form of Anne Hathaway and Helena Bonham Carter.
The two are the latest cast additions to Burton's "Alice in Wonderland," which will rework the classic Lewis Carroll tale using a combination of live action and performance-capture technology.
As previously reported, Johnny Depp will play the Mad Hatter in the movie, while Australian newcomer Mia Wasikowska has signed on as Alice.
Hathaway is playing the benevolent White Queen, while Bonham Carter will get to say the famous line "Off with their heads!" as her sister, the Red Queen.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Hathaway's character, who is deposed and banished by her sibling, recruits Alice to slay a creature known as the Bandersnatch.
The movie is currently shooting and will hit theatres in March 2010.
Hathaway, who is picking up Oscar buzz for her performance in the just-released "Rachel Getting Married," will next appear in the supernatural thriller "Passengers."
Bonham Carter has frequently worked with Burton, her fiancé, and has several films in post-production, including "Terminator: Salvation" and "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince."
