It is rumored that Michael Sheen is being is also in talks to join the cast.  It’s unknown what role he would be playing.  hould he sign on, he will be part of a project that already includes Johnny Depp and Bonham Carter, Jackie Earle Haley, Eva Green, Bella Heathcote, and Michelle Pfeiffer.

I cannot wait to see this movie if  Johnny Depp can do as good a job as Jonathan Frid as Barnabus did he will win awards and the movie is sure to be a hit!  I watched Dark Shadows when I was in high school and I am really looking forward to it.
