Tim Burton's 3D feature "Alice in Wonderland" looks set to top box office takings, latest reports suggest.

His film could rake in more than 75 million U.S. dollars on Sunday some reports say, which would bring it close to the 77 million dollars Avatar took in its first few days. The film cost around 200 million dollars to produce.

Alice will hit almost 3,000 3D screens across the U.S., less than half of its total run, with more than 3,700 domestic theaters programming the film in one or both formats. The film also screens this week in 41 international territories. Japan, Spain, China and several other countries will see Alice open in the coming months.

The film's cast includes Johnny Depp, Anne Hathaway, Helena Bonham Carter and 20-year-old Australian Mia Wasikowska as Alice.
