Get me a trailer NOW!!! Can NOT wait for this! It's going to be a wild & WEIRD Tim Burtonized version of Dark Shadows for sure, and I'm ready for it! The nails kind of threw me, but Johnny did say that he wanted this Barnabas to be a classic movie monster, and the "claws" fit PERFECTLY with THAT!
These look wonderful!
Is the bottom picture of Depp or is that Thomas McDonell who plays young Barnabas? Because he looks ...pretty young.
Yes, it's Depp in both pics. The one with Michelle Pfeiffer makes him look as young as the one alone, but in the one alone, it appears he is more "vamped out", maybe? I look forward to seeing the movie very much! These last two pics released have gotten my hopes up!
Depp is totally unrecognizable. It seems he changed his nose and cheekbones and the makeup on his face gives him the look of a a young man in his early 20's. Depp is 48. Incredible.
As he's said in the past, he designs and paints the character's face as part of his preparation for a role. So, these are Depp's personal choices.
If he gets really gets into the part, as all indications suggest, this very well could be Depp at the height of his acting prowess and a new high water mark for him.
I can't wait! I was fan when the original series was on. I think I was around 9 or 10 years old and I loved it then! This could very well be Johnny at his best!!!
Depp is perfect for this role. I have every show of the original series. The nails/makeup is just right. Afteral, Barnabas was rather pale, as he had been DEAD for 200 years. Barnabas also had really creepy nails. When I was a kid, the show scared me to death. I adore the costumes.
