A voiceover delivers cryptic clues about Alice's latest journey.
"When the day becomes the night, when the sky becomes the sea, when the clock strikes heavy and there's no time for tea," the voice booms.
"And in the darkest hour, before my final rhyme, she will come back home to Wonderland and turn back the hands of time."
She will face foes and meet friends new and old including The Mad Hatter's father played by Rhys Ifans' Zanik Hightopp, while the late Alan Rickman returns as Absolem.
