Tarrant Hightopp, also known as the Mad Hatter, is a fictional character in the 2010 film Alice in Wonderland and its 2016 sequel Alice Through the Looking Glass, based upon the original character from Lewis Carroll's Alice novels.[1] He is portrayed by actor Johnny Depp. He serves as the films' male protagonist.

Audience reception of the character was positive.

  1. ^ Carroll never actually used the term "The Mad Hatter", referring to the character as simply "the Hatter" in his novels Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. The chapter in which he appears is entitled A Mad Tea-Party, not as often supposed "The Mad Hatter's Tea Party"
