Anne Hathaway Surprise Appearance (Season 7)

Tara Zing, I think, in Anaheim, California. Hi, Ellen. I'm sure you get this all the time. And I know this is shot in the dark. But I was wondering, if at all possible, if you're having the director, Tim Burton, or any of the cast of Alice in Wonderland, if I could get tickets to the movie. Wow, how pushy. Thank you so much, Tara. Well, Tara, I get a lot of requests for special favors. Unfortunately, there's too many for me to do every single time. But this one time, I managed to pull some strings. And I got you two tickets to see Alice in Wonderland. And they are not on my desk. Who has the tickets to Alice in Wonderland? So you just happen to be backstage with my tickets? Just pass them by with the tickets. Well, thanks for bringing them out and sitting down. My pleasure. Because you could have just. How is everybody? This is a movie that I think everybody is looking at going, this looks unbelievable. I can't wait to see it. Is it as good as it looks? It's really wonderful. I've got to say, I just saw it in London last week. And I was so blown away by it. And I'm just so proud to be in it. I lobbied really hard. Yeah, what did you do to get this movie? Because I know a lot of actresses, when they read a script, they're like, I got to be in this. What did you do? Well, I had been sent the script even before Tim was attached to direct. And I was so moved by the story that I called the studio. And I said, I will do anything to play the White Queen. I don't know who the director is. But when it comes time to think of casting, if you could remember me, that would really be wonderful. And I'm not sure if that wasn't pathetic to do. No, no. I mean, I got the part, which was good. That's not pathetic. That's passionate. But I don't know if it's kind of like calling a guy that you like and being like, hey, I don't know if you're interested. But I totally like you. So if you're ever free, you know? I don't think a guy would mind that either. You know what, though? I got the part. And I'd do it again the same way. It was worth it to get in there. Yeah, no, that's fantastic. And was Johnny Depp attached already? At that point, no. Johnny came on when Tim came on. And had you worked with Johnny? Do you know Johnny? I mean, look at this. That's crazy. I've seen him a little bit now through the movie. And it's so fun, because everybody's always asking me, they're like, oh, do you like Johnny Depp? Did you like Johnny Depp? And I'm like, everybody likes Johnny Depp. He's the best guy ever. How do you not like Johnny Depp? It's like not liking the sun. Why wouldn't you like the sun? Some people don't. Some people are scared of the sun. Really? I think the sun's nice. It's powerful. It's got good energy. It does amazing things. And that's what Johnny's like, too. I agree with you on both of those things. All right, we have to take a break. And we have a little surprise for the audience after this. We'll be back. You have a little something to tell the audience, right? I do. I mentioned that I saw the film last week. And I think it's so wonderful that I think that everyone in the audience here should see it before everyone else gets to see it. As soon as you leave the Ellen Show. As soon as you leave here, you're going to a screening.
