Are you ready to follow the white rabbit to a movie theater near you? We certainly hope so because an Alice in Wonderland-inspired musical by Universal Pictures is coming to your way in the near future. And, for those who are tuned into pop music culture, the film will star singer Sabrina Carpenter. As Deadline reports, plot details are not available at this time, but we can assume this story will use the framework of Lewis Carroll’s beloved story.
Most of us are most familiar with Disney’s 1951 Alice in Wonderland animated film about a precocious young girl who follows a white rabbit into a whimsical and dangerous world. The songs are catchy and this film made celebrating your “unbirthday” seem super cool. The story takes place in the 1860s, so it would be cool for it to get a 2020s reimagining.
Like Alice, Carpenter is a pretty blonde who can sing, and she seems to have the right persona to pull off this character’s dreamy nature. Plus, her legion of fans will flock to theaters to see her in this role, which is what Universal Pictures is likely banking on. Meanwhile, we will mind our pocket watches and not-so-patiently wait for more about this Alice in Wonderland musical film.
