Wonder how Johnny Depp will look like as vampire Barnabas Collins in Tim Burton's highly-anticipated big screen remake of DARK SHADOWS? Well, take a look at these set photos below.
DARK SHADOWS is a big-screen remake of a popular TV series of the same name, which aired from 1966-1971. In the meantime, here's the synopsis from Warner Bros.:
In the year 1752, Joshua and Naomi Collins, with young son Barnabas, set sail from Liverpool, England to start a new life in America. But even an ocean was not enough to escape the mysterious curse that has plagued their family. Two decades pass and Barnabas (Johnny Depp) has the world at his feet-or at least the town of Collinsport, Maine. The master of Collinwood Manor, Barnabas is rich, powerful and an inveterate playboy...until he makes the grave mistake of breaking the heart of Angelique Bouchard (Eva Green). A witch, in every sense of the word, Angelique dooms him to a fate worse than death: turning him into a vampire, and then burying him alive. Two centuries later, Barnabas is inadvertently freed from his tomb and emerges into the very changed world of 1972. He returns to Collinwood Manor to find that his once-grand estate has fallen into ruin. The dysfunctional remnants of the Collins family have fared little better...
DARK SHADOWS also co-stars Chloe Moretz, Helena Bonham Carter, Eva Green, Michelle Pfeiffer, Christopher Lee, Jackie Earle Haley, Thomas McDonell, Jonny Lee Miller and Bella Heathcote. (By the way, that's Heathcote at the photos above, who plays Barnabas' love interest Victoria Winters). The movie is due on May 11, 2012.
