Tim Burton Talks Alice, Shane Acker’s 9

Director Tim Burton (Edward Scissorhands, Sweeney Todd) came to Comic-Con International, years after attending when he was a student. With him, he brought a new trailer for his next film, a wondrous reimagining of Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland. But Burton was also at the Con to support the “stitchpunk” adventure film 9, for which he and Wanted director Timur Bekmambetov served as producers. We spoke to Burton two days after Alice’s enthusiastic reception to learn how watching young director Shane Acker’s short film inspired him to sign on as the kind of producer/mentor he never had, and to see how far along his Alice project really is. – From Rotten Tomatoes
