Nov 18 2008(Probably Not) Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter!
IMAGE REMOVED AT REQUEST OF The Walt Disney Company
I feel certain this is not actually Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter in Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland. However, most every movie site is posting it, and it's getting sent in, so fine, here it is: possibly Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter but probably not. I remain confident it's a photo of David Bowie during his Ziggy Flamboyant Hobo phase.

Posting pictures of 'Johnny Depp' it seems.

I think it's Johnny alright, look at the lips. Small, thin yet pert lips and a gorgeous wide jaw.
Similar to Johnny as Edward Scissorhands.

Looks like a painting... or maybe a photo taken through a screen door in a poorly lit area.

I dunno...looks just like him.

Does look like him and he is in pretty much all of Burton's movies so it likely him under all that makeup, but I do agree with the writer in saying that there is something odd and it makes me doubt that its him.

Has anyone read if Danny Elfman is attatched to this film? He bloody well better be or I'll drive down ffrom Sunny Sunny Canada and lay a beating. It's not a Burton film without him.

I don't think the writer is contesting whether Depp is in the movie or not (because Burton Carter and Depp not working together? come on...really?)
I think the writer just means that he doesn't know if this pic is from the set (which I agree with others, I think it's Depp)

Maybe they are just doing screen tests for makeup and costume, does anyone know? is this final product?

Can you people not understand sarcasm? Of course the writer knows it's depp, he's making a joke.

He looks like one of the Penguin's goons from Batman Returns.

Man Cate Blanchett looked hot in those Elizabeth movies... Victorian era is so hot. Just look at her pale skin and perfectly formed lips. Sexy eyes and perfect bone structure...
What? That's not... oh shit. Well whoever that chick is she still looks hot.

Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland movie is going to be motion capture.

lol that's kindof cool x) but I saw this a few days ago (no kidding) on one site and they tagged it with fan art.. great photoshop whoever did it
18. Sevenace - November 18, 2008 3:01 PM
Daisy - is it real?
(I know I hate those posts too just seems like a place for one lol)
It is him maybe not be from the movie though. I honestly I wouldn't be surprised if this is what Depp wears to the supermarket, this is just him in the cereal aisle looking for some captain crunch.

looks like concept art.

I wonder if the bunny rabbit he's holding is supposed to be the March Hare. Didn't even notice it at first, it got lost in all his gothy accessories.

its johnnys face from edward scissorhands pasted over some hobos face, note the cut on the chin

Well, this picture is official. If it was Photoshopped by someone, I doubt Disney would demand a site pull the picture down. If Disney wants the picture removed, then it's official. And stupid, considering there are approximately 3,288,317 other web sites with the same picture up.
