With the rumors of Maggie Grace replacing Sarah Michelle Gellar in the adaptation of American McGee's Alice, it's nice to hear official word from Gellar that she's still on board and DYING to do the project, which pits her as in a mental institute after her parents are killed in a fire. After failing to convince people that her visit to Wonderland was indeed real, Alice is given a second chance to return to this strange realm. Equipped with courage, a keen appetite for the bizarre and a lethal array of transmogrified toys, she'll penetrate the strongholds of her enemies, confront the forces of evil and put the wicked Queen of Hearts in her place. Read on to see what Gellar had to say about the long-delayed project.
There have been some shoddy rumors floating around the web that Sarah Michelle Gellar won't portray Alice in the adaptation of the video gam with the same name. She tells Radio Free otherwise. "It's a passion project of mine. It's a story that I'd love to see. I'm fearful at this rate that I'm going to be the Queen of Hearts because I'm going to be too old to be Alice. [laughs] It's something I'd really like to see done. And unfortunately, it was the victim of regime change in the studio. And I'm not getting out. And contrary to what you may have read, it's still my project. [laughs] And I'm still working diligently. So to all those Alice fans, I'm not giving up. Because I believe there is such a beautiful, crazy, cool, twisted story to be told there. [jokes] And if I have to get down and write it myself one of these days, I may have to..."
Gellar's totally on board, so why the delay? I think it's safe to say a lot of horror fans would LOVE to see this.
