# **The Alice in Wonderland Franchise: A Journey Into the Fantastic**
The **Alice in Wonderland** franchise, more commonly known as Alice, has been a cornerstone of the Disney media franchise since its inaugural release in 1951 with the animated film adaptation of Lewis Carroll's beloved books. The first book, "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" published in 1865, and its sequel "Through the Looking-Glass" from 1871, introduced us to the curious and imaginative character of Alice, a young girl navigating a fantastical world brimming with peculiar creatures and mind-boggling situations.
## **Diving Down the Rabbit Hole: The Animated Beginning**
The journey began with the 1951 animated fantasy comedy-adventure film, a British-American collaboration that brought Carroll's whimsical world to life. This 13th Disney animated feature film was released in New York City and London, featuring the voices of Kathryn Beaumont as Alice and Ed Wynn as the Mad Hatter. The film's theme song, "Alice in Wonderland," later became a jazz standard, highlighting the lasting influence of this pioneering movie.
## **Reimagining Wonderland: The Live-Action Leap**
Fast forward to 2010, a new vision of Alice's story was brought to the big screen. This American fantasy film, directed by the visionary Tim Burton, took a bold step into the realm of live-action. Starring Mia Wasikowska as Alice Kingsleigh, alongside Johnny Depp, Anne Hathaway, and Helena Bonham Carter, the film was shot in both the United Kingdom and the United States, broadening its international appeal.
## **A Further Venture: Through the Looking Glass**
The story didn't stop there. In 2016, "Alice Through the Looking Glass" made its debut as a sequel to the 2010 film. Directed by James Bobin and featuring a star-studded cast including Mia Wasikowska, Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, Anne Hathaway, Sacha Baron Cohen, and Rhys Ifans, the film continued to expand the enchanting universe of Alice.
## **Wandering into the Small Screen: The Alice in Wonderland TV Series**
Alice's adventures also found a home on television. "Adventures in Wonderland," a live-action musical series based on Disney's animated film, portrayed Alice as a girl who could come and go from Wonderland simply by walking through her mirror, a nod to Carroll's "Through the Looking-Glass". This was followed by the series "Once Upon a Time in Wonderland," an American fantasy-drama series, and "Alice's Wonderland Bakery," a computer-animated television series that premiered on Disney Junior in 2022.
## **Playing in Wonderland: The Video Game Adaptations**
The franchise has also expanded into the world of gaming, with several video games based on Alice's adventures. One example is a platform video game developed by Digital Eclipse Software and published by Nintendo for the Game Boy Color in 2000, which follows the plot of the 1951 animated film.
## **In Conclusion**
From its beginnings as a series of novels to its evolution into animated and live-action films, TV series, and video games, the **Alice in Wonderland** franchise continues to captivate audiences worldwide with its rich characters and imaginative settings. It invites us all to fall down the rabbit hole and explore the wonders of Wonderland, just as Alice did.
