She then runs away eventually following a rabbit into a hole and ending up in a place she visited 10 years ago but doesn’t remember. A place they call Wonderland. Alice is then faced with a decision whether to help the creatures in Wonderland whose relies on her. Alice soon meets the freakish looking Mad Hatter played by Johnny Depp, the Red Queen (Helena Bonham Carter) who’s known for her famous line “Off with Their Heads” line, the egg-shaped Tweedledee and Tweedledum (Matt Lucas) and the White Queen (Anne Hathaway).
