A brand-new trailer has been released for the much-awaited anime film ‘Alice in Wonderland: Dive in Wonderland’, set to hit Japanese theaters on August 29, 2025.
Produced by Studio P.A. Works and directed by Toshiya Shinohara, the film reimagines Lewis Carroll’s timeless fantasy through a modern anime lens.
The trailer introduces a vibrant, dreamlike world where Alice, voiced by Maika Pugh, is joined by Rise, a contemporary Japanese student played by Nanoka Hara (known for Suzume).
Together, they navigate a surreal Wonderland filled with familiar faces like the Cheshire Cat (Toshiyuki Morikawa), Queen of Hearts (Mayu Matsuoka), and Mad Hatter (Koji Yamamoto).

“We wanted to explore what Wonderland would look like through the eyes of two girls from different worlds,” said director Shinohara in a recent interview with Anime Corner.
Cast, Characters, and Visual Style: A Whimsical Reimagining
The film boasts a star-studded voice cast, including:
- Maika Pugh as Alice
- Nanoka Hara as Rise
- Mayu Matsuoka as Queen of Hearts
- Koji Yamamoto as Mad Hatter
- Kappei Yamaguchi as White Rabbit
- Toshiyuki Morikawa as Cheshire Cat
The animation, handled by P.A. Works, blends watercolor textures with digital flourishes, giving Wonderland a painterly, dreamlike aesthetic. The theme song, “Zukan” by SEKAI NO OWARI, adds a hauntingly whimsical tone to the trailer.
“This isn’t just a retelling — it’s a cultural remix,” noted anime critic Yuki Tanaka. “It’s Carroll meets Kyoto.”
