: bigger, better, and never more beautiful : Alice is older, sexier, wiser, more confident and more competent physically and mentally than the 9-year old pretty child of the traditional story. She’s been hurt; she’s angry; she’s embattled. But most importantly, she’s got nothing to lose.

Alice goes to Hollywood
06.12.2k
American McGee’s Alice – the EA action game that has the industry buzzing – is headed to the big screen. McGee tells Well Rounded Entertainment that after 10 months of negotiations, Dimension Films has committed to make a film version of McGee’s “Dark Wonderland.” And judging by the talent already attached to the project, Dimension has high hopes for this one.
Wes Craven (Scream, Scream 2, Scream 3) has signed on to direct. And John August (Go, Charlie’s Angels) is writing the script, with a first draft due in January. (The story will go pretty much hand-in-hand with the game’s plot.) Collision Entertainment will co-produce with McGee.
