  • The anime film, titled 'Alice in Wonderland -Dive in Wonderland-', will premiere in Japan on August 29, 2025, with no international release date confirmed yet.
  • This marks the first anime movie adaptation of Lewis Carroll's 1865 classic, though there have been previous anime series and projects inspired by the story.
  • Directed by Toshiya Shinohara and scripted by Yuko Kakihara, the film will feature a unique paper art-inspired visual style by animation studio P.A. Works.
  • Nanoka Hara voices a new character named Rise, while 10-year-old Maika Pugh takes on the role of Alice in the film.
