ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: What was your first day like on set?

I think maybe its best to talk about the read-through before the first day of set.

So I was pretty nervous and also really jet-lagged, so just meeting everybody then was massive.

We had a really good read-through and everyone was really nice.

Mainly everybody was really excited about this reboot.

Its difficult when you go through a reboot or a change of new ideas and all of that stuff.

Had you watched the show?

Ive watched the show.

My best friend in the whole world is a massive fan of the show.

Tell us about Alice as a person.She is streetwise.

She is a streetwise orphan.

Shes got eyes all over Hyperion Heights.

As I say, Tillys the eyes of Hyperion Heights.

She sees everything, and shes also the source of lots of information for lots of people.

We actually meet her in the first episode, but episode 4 is a big one for her.

We have a mixture of old faces and now new faces, and also revamped faces.

Im calling this season the fusion.

You never know whos who in this world.

In terms of the curse, I think it will be very interesting how these characters develop.

Will we actually get to see her in Wonderland?

Are we going to get some flashbacks into her life there?I would hope so.

Okay, lets wrap Rose, and lets just have a one to one time with the rabbit.

She wants to be part of something.

I think shes desperately looking and searching for that.

Its: Where am I and where do I belong?

Where do I belong?

Where am I now and where am I going and all of this stuff?
