This article is about the 2010 live-action character. For the 1951 animated character, see March Hare.
Thackery Earwicket, also called the March Hare, appears in the 2010 Disney film Alice in Wonderland. In the film, he behaves as if he is constantly nerve-wracked and completely delirious. He is a cook in the film as well, and the way he eccentrically throws dishes and pots suggests he is an amalgam of both the March Hare and the cook from Lewis Carroll's original book. Thackery has a strong Scottish accent in the film, while his friend Tarrant Hightoppswitches into a Scottish accent whenever his emotions are strained. He is first seen in the "Tea Party" scene, which takes place at his "Hare House" windmill.
"Spoon"
Thackery hosts a tea party, which he shares with Tarrant Highttop, Mally, and Chessur. He then appears a second time in the White Queen's kitchen, frantically cooking and throwing dishes. His third appearance is at the Frabjous Day scene, in which he stands with the other characters wielding a ladle as his weapon, nervous and somewhat ready to go to battle. Burton stated that because Whitehouse is a great comedic actor, a lot of his lines came from improvisation.
Video Games
In the video game adaptation, Thackery is a playable character. His special ability is telekinesis, and his main form of attack is to throw teacups. He also uses his big feet and large ears as weapons.
