Depp and Wasikowska confirmed for Wonderland 2 and Elizabeth Olsen officially in for Avengers 2

Elizabeth Olsen starred in indie hits such as Martha Marcy May Marlene, Silent House and Liberal Arts. She’s got three major roles coming up: Spike Lee’s remake of Chan Wook Park’s cult classic thriller Oldboy, with Aaron Taylor Johnson and Bryan Cranston on Gareth Edwards’ epic reboot Godzilla and Joss Whedon’s hopefully stunning comic book sequel The Avengers: Age of Ultron, which Olsen has finally been confirmed for. She’ll play Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch, brother of Quicksilver (Godzilla star Taylor Johnson). The ensemble includes Robert Downey Jr, Chris Hemsworth, Cobie Smulders, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Samuel L Jackson, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo and James Spader.

In some ways, Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland was a sequel in its own way. Its story takes place many years after the original animation, and Lewis Carroll’s books, and sees Alice’s return to a world she thought was a dream but it wasn’t adapting Carroll’s actual sequel Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There. James Bobin (The Muppets) will be taking over directing for this adaptation of The Looking Glass and stars Johnny Depp and Mia Wasikowska are set to star in a 27th of May 2016 release date. There’s still no word on Helena Bonham Carter, Alan Rickman, Anne Hathaway or Matt Lucas.
