“Alice in Wonderland has a super fan base of over 100 years at this point,” she tells Polygon. Braswell has penned other entries in the Disney series, including the ones for The Little Mermaid, in which Ursula takes over the underwater kingdom, and Aladdin, in which Aladdin never finds the lamp, but when it came to Alice, she felt like she had to honor not only the Disney movie but the literary legacy. So when author Liz Braswell reimagined the fantasy for Disney’s Twisted Tales series - which posit dark, story-warping “what if”s on beloved animated movies - she felt some extra pressure.
The classic Disney movie itself is, of course, a reimagining of Lewis Carroll’s 1865 novel.
In the last half-century we’ve seen the Tim Burton live-action movies, American McGee’s horror video game, a Jefferson Airplane song, two operas, and John Craton’s ballet. Alice in Wonderland is no stranger to spinoffs, sequels, and reimagnings.
