David Hayter, writer of “X-Men”, “X-Men 2”, “Watchmen” and “The Scorpion King”, will pen the film adaptation of “American McGee’s Alice” for Electronic Arts.
No broadcaster or streaming platform has as yet acquired the series, now in development.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, “The TV adaptation will begin after Alice returns from the trip through the looking-glass to find that her house has burnt down and her parents died in the fire. After repeated attempts at suicide, she gets locked up inside a mental institution and is slowly wasting away there before she is summoned to Wonderland again by the White Rabbit.
But this time it’s a Wonderland gone seriously bad and gory. The only chance for Alice to restore her peace of mind and find out more about the death of her parents is to fight through Wonderland and free it from the evil powers.”
Currently, McGee is developing a sequel to the “Alice in Wonderland”-inspired game.
