Sabrina Carpenter will return to her acting roots by starring and producing in an as-yet-untitled musical inspired by the Lewis Carroll classic Alice in Wonderland. The project will be released by Universal Pictures and both directed and adapted for film by Lorene Scafaria.
Carpenter has never been the top-billed star of a major movie, but spent three-plus years acting in the Disney Channel series Boy Meets World as a teenager and has also appeared in smaller roles in such films as The Hute U Give, Emergency, Tall Girl parts one and two and The Short History of the Long Road.
In September, she signed on to appear in a Muppet Show special helmed by Seth Rogen, which will come out sometime next year on Disney+. Fresh from directing several episodes of and serving as an executive producer on the HBO series I Love L.A., Scafaria will next direct the A24 comedy Jonty, starring Jesse Plemons.
Alice in Wonderland has long proved its mettle as box-office source material, most recently with an eponymous 2010 Tim Burton-directed film that grossed more than $1 billion around the world. A sequel, Alice Through the Looking Glass, came out in 2016.
Carpenter is currently touring in support of her latest Island album, Man’s Best Friend, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in August and was just nominated for six top honors at the upcoming Grammy Awards.
