Alice Through The Looking Glass: 25 WTF Moments From The Trailer

22. The Mad Hatter Has Brushed His Hair

Theory: This scene is from the past. Absolem€™s voiceover, €˜Friends cannot be neglected€™, feels designed to make you think this shot is in the present, and that the Mad Hatter needs Alice€™s help. But maybe that's to intentionally mislead us? The wild look of the Mad Hatter€™s hair is one of his unique features, bound up with his madness. His hair shoots out to the sides in the first film, even when you see him without a hat on. If he€™s been brushing his hair, you€™re inclined to think this is either, a) Set in the past, or b) If it€™s set in the present, he€™s decided to tame his hair for part of the movie, because his hair for most of the rest of the trailer still has a mind of its own.
