Johnny Depp has revealed that he loved playing the Mad Hatter in Alice In Wonderland.
Depp became more and more interested in the character after reading the original novels, Contactmusic reports.
"I started reading the books and understanding the character and the significance of the letter M," he said. "There's a moment when he says, 'I'm investigating things that begin with the letter M'.
"That was huge for me. Hatters were referred to as mad because of the mercury they used to use in the glue. Mercury was the M. I found that fascinating."
However, Depp has also admitted that filming was "exhausting" because he worked with green screens so much.
"It beats you up," he revealed. "You're kind of befuddled at the end of the day."
