Alice first travelled to Underland as a child, and now, as she approaches adulthood, struggles with balancing the sense of curiosity passed down from her father and conforming to other people’s expectations.

Iracebeth, the Red Queen and former monarch of Underland who ruled with tyranny, malice and an extremely short temper, is played once again by Helena Bonham Carter. Iracebeth despises her younger sibling, Mirana.
