Lewis Carroll's book Alice in Wonderland (his real name was Charles Lutwidge Dodgson) was published in 1865 with the correct title Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.

2010 saw a revival of interest with the release of a Disney film starring Mia Wasikowska, Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter which won several awards including two Oscar's.

This wasn't Walt Disney's first animated film of the same name, that was back in 1951 but this adaptation tells the story of a nineteen-year-old Alice Kingsleigh, who is told that she can restore the White Queen to her throne, with the help of the Mad Hatter. She is the only one who can slay the Jabberwocky, a dragon-like creature that is controlled by the Red Queen and terrorizes Underland's inhabitants.'

Many famous actors also had voice over roles in the movie including Michael Sheen voiced Nivens McTwisp, the White Rabbit.
Alan Rickman voiced Absolem, the Caterpillar. Stephen Fry voiced Chess, the Cheshire Cat. Barbara Windsor voiced Mallymkun, the Dormouse, and others.

The movie was a great success and prompted a sequel Alice Through the Looking Glass (2016 film)

again many of the original cast were present including the late Alan Rickman where he performed his last role. Not as successful as the previous version it still however prompted Disney to undergo a lot of remakes of older movies such as Maleficent, Cinderella, The Jungle Book and Beauty and the Beast. The Mad Hatter a central character in both movies and publications was never called as such but was only referred to as 'The Hatter' - the phrase Mad as a Hatter was in common usage in Victorian times and referred to the use of mercury by Hat Makers to strengthen hats which made them appear mad I presume from the fumes.

A unique character non the less he is an integral part of the plot and brings humor and mischief to the plot and story line.
