Lucas is Dee/Dum | Movie News Veteran British comedy writer/actor Matt Lucas, who's currently being all kinds of awesome on HBO's "Little Britain USA" was recently on British talk show "Friday Night with Jonathan Ross" and mentioned that he'd be playing dual roles of Tweedledum and Tweedledee, the portly twins who never contradict each other, on Tim Burton's upcoming ALICE IN WONDERLAND, his adaptation of Lewis Carroll's classic story. With Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter and the whole thing being a live action/CGI hybrid, this flick is shaping up to be something to look out for come March 5th, 2010. The story of course follows the titular Alice on an adventure through a rabbit hole into a bizarre world of Cheshire Cats, Mad Hatters and the nefarious Queen of Hearts.

Tweedledum and Tweedle Dee were in Through the Looking Glass... They are not in Alices Adventures in Wonderland.
Why do people keep doing this?!

Yeah

He'd do this well. Which is a blessing, because he's a talented comedian but Little Britain is FUCKING FUCKING GODAWFUL.
