Depp, Burton re-team for Dark Shadows
December 04, 2008
Hollywood super-producer Richard D. Zanuck has told collider.com that Johnny Depp and Tim Burton's movie update of the cult gothic soap opera Dark Shadows (first announced last year) will be their next collaboration.
He said the pair will get cracking on the project next summer in London, after they've finished working on Alice in Wonderland.
The original Dark Shadows ran in the late '60s and revolved around a governess who arrived to work at a big mansion, only to find it inhabited by vampires, witches, monsters and all manner of other supernatural goings-on.
Johnny Depp was apparently obsessed with the show from a young age and has always been keen to play vampire Barnabus Collins.
