Sabrina Carpenter Dives Down the Rabbit Hole in New Alice Musical Film!

Sabrina Carpenter, a well-known American pop singer, is set to take on a new challenge by starring in a musical film inspired by Alice in Wonderland. This will be her first time leading a major studio movie, according to several US media reports. Not only will Sabrina act in the film, but she will also be involved in producing it. The project is being developed by Universal Pictures, with Lorene Scafaria, the filmmaker behind Hustlers, writing and directing. BBC Newsbeat has reached out to both Carpenter's representatives and Universal for more details, but nothing has been confirmed yet.

The details about Sabrina's role in the movie and the production timeline are still unknown. However, it is reported that Sabrina herself approached Universal last year with ideas for the film. As the project started to take shape, Lorene Scafaria decided to join as the writer and director. Scafaria is recognized for her work on Hustlers, a 2019 film starring Jennifer Lopez. If the movie goes ahead, it will mark a significant milestone in Sabrina Carpenter's career, as she has never led a major studio film before.

Sabrina Carpenter has been making headlines recently for her music achievements. She has received six Grammy nominations, including Album of the Year for her seventh album, Man's Best Friend. She is currently wrapping up her Short n' Sweet Tour. Sabrina began her career as a child actor on Disney Channel, playing Maya Hart in Girl Meets World. She has also appeared in Netflix movies like Work It and Tall Girl, as well as The Hate U Give from 20th Century Fox. In addition, she will be a guest star in a special Muppet Show episode for Disney+ in 2026. The story of Alice in Wonderland, written by Lewis Carroll in 1865, has been adapted many times, including the 1951 Disney animated film and Tim Burton's 2010 version starring Johnny Depp. Sabrina's upcoming musical film will offer a fresh take on this classic tale, and fans are eager to see her bring the magical world of Wonderland to life.
