Contemporary re-tellings of
Alice in Wonderland are nothing new, it's a tale that is constantly being re-told or re-imaginged on our cinema screens. However I don't think it's quite being reproduced like this before...
Mischa Barton from
The O.C. is set to star in
Malice in Sunderland. She will be playing an American student who travels the atlantic to study in London when she gets hit by a taxi. When she wakes up she finds that she is in hell.....well actually not really, she wakes up in Sunderland. Sunderland isn't that bad really, I'm currently finishing my education there and to be fair there is probably worse places you could find yourself in. Once there she is set to encounter "macabre and shady underworld characters".... yeah there is plenty of them in Sunderland. source -
