Beschreibung:

Johnny Depp and Tim Burton did an interview
with Entertainment Tonight's Mary Hart, portions of which aired on Monday, February 22nd.

Mary Hart: Was he always your Mad Hatter?

Tim Burton: Yeah, well, after he lobbied for Alice, we went for the next logical character
after that

Johnny Depp: And I had to agree, it really is better than me playing Alice.

Tim Burton: From working with him for so many years, one thing I knew from the very beginning is that he goes for anything. He's willing to try anything, and that's very exciting. That's what creation is all about

Mary Hart: The difference here is you're acting on a green screen. So everyone was telling me there's nothing around. So that does make the challenge an entirely different one for you actors.

Johnny Depp: I was in a slightly different situation with regards to that, only because, as
the Mad Hatter, I took the green in as a friend, in a way. Being surrounded by all that green, which is totally surreal in the first place, but then having grown-ups walking around in green leotards with green masks on, so that they're invisible during the filming process . .. I took it all in and I used it. Because it's so ludicrous.

Tim Burton: It's completely absurd. Luckily he got to use it for a character.

Johnny Depp: I liked it.

Tim Burton: The rest of us were tortured.
