Cumming and Romijn Are Mad for Hatter

Mutants stick together. After appearing as superheroes in X2: X-Men United, Alan Cumming and Rebecca Romijn will be reunited for the new film Hatter.

The feature debut for director James Killough, the story follows a fashion designer known for his wild lifestyle and a journalist who's got inside dirt on some of his less than savory exploits.

The pair wind up involved in a modern take on the Mad Hatter's tea party from the classic Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.

In other words, if the supporting characters are analogous to an irate queen and a Tweedledum/Tweedledee couple, then there's no telling how interesting the rest of the casting process could get.

The party goes before the cameras in spring of 2008 for a tea party date somewhere in '09.
