Johnny Depp and Anne Hathaway will join the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall in London this month for the royal world premiere of Alice In Wonderland.

Pleased to meet you: Johnny Depp will be in London for the premiere

Tim Burton's eagerly-awaited 3D fantasy adventure features Depp as the Mad Hatter, Hathaway as the White Queen, Helena Bonham Carter as the Red Queen, Australian rising star Mia Wasikowska as Alice and Little Britain star Matt Lucas who plays Tweedledum and Tweedledee.

A host of British talent provided the voices for Wonderland's inhabitants, including Stephen Fry as the Cheshire Cat, Alan Rickman as Absolem the caterpillar, Michael Sheen as The White Rabbit, Paul Whitehouse as The March Hare, Timothy Spall as Bayard, Barbara Windsor as the Dormouse and Sir Christopher Lee as the Jabberwocky.

The Walt Disney Pictures movie is inspired by Lewis Carroll's classic tales about Alice.

Burton's Alice in Wonderland features a new adventure as 19-year-old Alice returns to Wonderland for the first time since she was a child with no memory of her previous adventures there.

Held in Leicester Square on February 25, the premiere will raise cash for The Prince's Foundation for Children and the Arts.
The movie goes on UK release on March 5.
