Johnny Depp Talks Dark Shadows

About his character, Barnabas Collins,  in Tim Burton's upcoming adaption of Dark Shadows, Johnny Depp says:

"Tim and I have tossed the idea for Dark Shadows over the years. It was a TV program in the States in the late 60s and early 70s that I remember watching as a kid. I was obsessed with this character, Barnabas Collins, who was a vampire. I came to find out many years later that when he was a kid, Tim ran home like I did to watch that Gothic soap opera. It was a very strange thing back then. We looked at ways to go, story-wise. We've started to come up with something interesting."

Filming for Dark Shadows should start early next year.

HBC was nominated for an International Emmy for her role in Enid on BBC4.
Awesome!

On Stranger Tides Pre-Credits SPOLIERS

What's Playing has details about the opening, pre-credits, scenes of Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.
Be warned-- there are spoilers, so stop reading if you want to avoid such things!

Film opens at night. Spanish fisherman spots something in the water. A Shape. He fishes out what he soon discovers is the body of an ancient sailor. The boat’s captain rushes over for a look - - before he can make his assessment, the thought-dead sailor’s eyes open. Sailor grabs Captain’s arm… fade out. The Captain and his aide then arrive at the regal residents of King Ferdinand, with said body, who inform the royal that the not-so-dead sailor claims to have sailed on a vessel belonging to the ship of Ponce de Leon, who died 200 years ago. Ferdinand’s first thought is that the sailor has found the legendary Fountain of Youth. He orders ‘The Spaniard’ to hit the seas in search of it.

 What do you think? Are you excited for this movie or do you think the series should have ended at the third movie (or even the first?)
