Yahoo! Movies reports Johnny Depp is in the final stages of talks to reprise his role as the Mad Hatter for the sequel to Disney’s 2010 hit Alice in Wonderland. Unlike the original, the sequel won’t be directed by Tim Burton. Disney is apparently very happy to continue working with Depp despite the box office disappointment The Lone Ranger. In addition to Alice, Depp is already signed to for the next Pirates of the Caribbean film and has a first- look deal with the studio to develop pictures there.
