First Look at Original DARK SHADOWS Cast & Alice Cooper with Johnny Depp
Three new behind-the-scenes pictures featuring Johnny Depp as vampire Barnabas Collins, and original cast members of the 60's soap opera, who are making cameos in Tim Burton's new movie.
Another day goes by without even a sniff of a trailer, but we've got some great behind-the-scenes pictures from the set of Tim Burton's Dark Shadows. These are pretty exciting for long time fans as we get our first look at original cast members of the campy television series: David Selby, Lara Parker, Jonathan Frid, and Kathryn Leigh Scott. All four will be making cameos in the film alongside legendary rocker Alice Cooper, who can also seen below.
This May, Tim Burton and Johnny Depp team up to bring us their re-imagining of the classic series DARK SHADOWS. The story of Barnabas Collins and his Collinsport companions has enthralled audiences since it first aired in the late 60s. Now, FM is celebrating the return of DARK SHADOWS with THE most complete coverage you’ll find anywhere. With new and exclusive FM interviews from the original cast members Jonathan Frid, Lara Parker, David Selby, Katherine Leigh Scott, and more, plus a conversation with new DS director, Tim Burton, issue 261 is the place for all things DARK SHADOWS. To celebrate, one of FM’s favorite cover artists—Jason Edmiston (254 Vincent Price, 255 Voldemort)—brings us his vision of “The Barnabi”, Jonathan Frid and Johnny Depp as we bridge the divide between the SHADOWS of the past and the SHADOWS of the future.
Dark Shadows also stars Helena Bonham-Carter, Michelle Pfeiffer, Eva Green, Chloe Moretz and Jackie Earle Haley. The film will be in theaters May 11th, 2012.
