The Red Queen is the antagonist of the film. He often wears a toothy smile, and an expression of insanity, and he loves nothing more than making hats, and performing his famed jig, the Futterwacken. In spite of his eccentricities, he is a noble and loyal friend to Alice and a major leader of the resistance against the Red Queen. He has vibrant hair, nails, and eyes and is quite strange, regarded by everyone as being quite 'mad' and a little off-kilter. The Mad Hatter lives in Wonderland, and is a character whose emotions are close to the surface. A serious and intuitive young woman, she has bigger plans than just doing what is expected of her, and her time in Wonderland helps her gain self-confidence, and leads her to follow in her father's footsteps and become an imperial entrepreneur. Alice is imaginative and non-conforming, resentful of doing things just because they are expected of her.

While her adult life has led her to believe that Wonderland is only a dream, she soon realizes that it is, in fact, very real, and as she discovers this, she becomes braver and more sure of herself. Overwhelmed with the expectations of society, she follows the white rabbit down the rabbit hole to Wonderland. This all comes to a head when she is pressured into marrying the awkward Hamish at a garden party. After losing her father, her most trusted confidant and supporter, Alice feels at odds with the rigid conformism of her world.
