Disney finally realized that after four released teasers time has come to release the first trailer as well, for the upcoming movie “Alice through the looking glass”. It seems that this upcoming awesome adventure reunites the whole cast from the previous movie, ready to take part on a new fantastic adventure. By whole cast I mean of course, Johnny Depp too.

Yes. Johnny Depp will play the same character, The Mad Hatter who, believe it or not, will be in great danger. Along with him,  other members of the cast will be present as well, such as Anne Hathaway, Mia Wasikowska and Helena Bonham Carter. They will join the voices of Stephen Fry, Michael Sheen, Timothy Spall, and Alan Rickman. We will get to meet new characters as well, including Zanik Hightopp (Rhys Ifans) who will be the Mad Hatter’s father, and Time Itself (Sacha Baron Cohen), a very interesting creature who is half human, half clock.

Disney’s upcoming  movie “Alice through the looking glass” will be a major adventure movie that will also present us Lewis Carol’s characters as well. Alice will get to meet Time Itself and will have the mission to save his friend, The Mad Hatter and all her Underworld friends. The movie is directed by James Bobin who brings his personal vision to the fantastic world created by Tim Burton in the previous movie from 2011, Alice in Wonderland. The script is written by Linda Woolverton which is also based on Lewis Carol’s characters.

What is it all about? Well, Alice Kingsleigh spent the following years with her father sailing on the seas. When she returns to London, she comes across a magical looking glass which gets her back to the fantastical realm of Underland. There, she meets her friends, the White Rabbit, Absolem, the Cheshire Cat, and The Mad Hatter (Johnny Depp) who is not himself.  The Mad Hatter lost his Muchness, so Mirana (Anne Hathaway)  sends Alice on a quest to find and borrow the Cronosphere a metallic globe which powers all the time. Returning to the past she come across friends, even enemies, having the mission to save the Mad Hatter before time runs out.

Disney’s upcoming movie “Alice through the looking glass” opens in U.S theaters on May 27 2016 and will be presented in Digital 3D, Real D 3D and IMAX 3D.

Here is the trailer and I can tell that this will be such a great adventure! Will Alice be able to save the Mad Hatter in time? We will find out this summer.

There hasn’t been much buzz lately about any new acquisitions in the world of video game intellectual property. According to a recent report, Sony is currently engaged in discussions with a well-funded partner to potentially acquire the renowned film studio Paramount, along with all the exciting possibilities that come with such a merger.

As reported in the New York Times (thanks, ResetEra), Sony Picture Entertainment is reportedly in discussions with Apollo Global Management, an investment firm, as per two sources familiar with the matter. In the past, Apollo had made an offer to acquire Paramount for a minimum of $26 billion, but their bid was ultimately turned down.

The terms of the joint bid are currently under discussion, and there is a chance that the two parties may decide against making a formal offer. Unnamed sources have revealed that Paramount is currently in exclusive discussions with Skydance, preventing any official offer from being made at this time. Investor opposition to the recent deal that Skydance brought seems to have been significant.

The potential impact of such an acquisition is immense. First and foremost, it would introduce adaptations of Sonic and Halo into the expanding media empire of the PlayStation platform holder. Following the announcement, Paramount’s stock experienced a significant 11% surge in after-hours trading.

What are your thoughts on the news? Is there a possibility of Sony acquiring Paramount? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.
