1. Michael Sheen

There are no actors who have the same amount of versatility and great energy as Michael Sheen. Although he has turned in some laughable portrayals -Twilight for example - he is always reliable for an entertaining performance.

Michael has also proved in films like Apostle that he can play intimidating, serious characters, a synergy between his more fun high energy performances and his dark, evil characters would be the exact right tone for The Mad Hatter.

Michael has also seen a reprise of his popularity lately, despite always being a well-respected name his mainstream appeal has increased recently with his role in the Amazon Prime series Good Omens. Through this, he has the right backing behind him to bring a significant amount of interest towards the film.

Finally, his look also works so well for the character, precisely his smaller frame. There is also the chance that he could bring his native Welsh accent to the role to add more nuance and make the villain iconic.
