An Alice in Wonderland sequel could be picked up by Disney after the studio reportedly declared its interest.
Linda Woolverton is writing a follow-up to Tim Burton's 2010 movie, according to Variety.
The first film starred Mia Wasikowska, Johnny Depp, Anne Hathaway and Helena Bonham-Carter. Joe Roth, Suzanne Todd and Jennifer Todd would return as producers, the report claims.
The 3D movie earned $1 billion worldwide and won Oscars for art direction and costume design.
Woolverton previously wrote Disney films such as Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King, The Incredible Journey and Homeward Bound.
The studio is apparently interested despite chief technical officer Andy Hendrickson admitting last year that he was unimpressed with the first film.
He said in August 2011: "The story isn't very good, but the visual spectacle brought people in droves. And Johnny Depp didn't hurt."
The first Alice in Wonderland picture, based on Lewis Carroll's stories Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass, is currently being developed as a musical by Disney's Theatrical Production arm.
