News

From Rachel Getting Married to Alice in Wonderland.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Anne Hathaway (pictured) has joined the cast of this Tim Burton film. Also coming aboard the project?

Burton's partner, Helena Bonham Carter.

The movie will star Mia Wasikowska in the role Alice and Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter. It will use a combination of live action and performance-capture technology to tell the classic Lewis Carroll tale.

Reportedly, Hathaway will portray the White Queen, a benevolent monarch who is deposed and banished by her sister, the Red Queen (Carter). Everyone knows this character: she loves to utter the phrase, "Off with their heads!"

Look out, Alice.

Helena Bonham Carter won't reveal too much about her character in Terminator Salvation, but did she tell Sci-Fi Wire that Serena will be a villain.

"I kind of play a baddie, definitely a baddie," Bonham Carter said. "I don't know how much I'm allowed to say, but I'm a very bad person."

The actress added that she was pushed into the role by long-time boyfriend, director Tim Burton.

"Tim would have killed me if I hadn't done it, because he's such a Terminator fan. I've been in big movies before... Fight Club was big in a different way, and Charlie [and the Chocolate Factory] and Sweeney Todd were big, but I've never been in this kind of big popcorn action movie, a male one, an action one."

Helena Bonham Carter may star in Terminator Salvation, the first movie in a planned trilogy/relaunch of the Terminator franchise. The film is set for a May 22, 2009 release.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Bonham Carter - who would join Christian Bale, Sam Worthington, Anton Yelchin, Bryce Dallas Howard, Moon Bloodgood in the movie - would play a role that is small, but pivotal.

Bonham Carter most recently starred as Bellatrix Lestrange in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and as Mrs. Lovett in Sweeney Todd.
