According to New York magazine: Tim Burton (pictured) will direct “Dark Shadows,” based on the sixties soap opera about vampires, monsters, zombies, and werewolves. John August is writing the screenplay. Although the project is set up at Johnny Depp‘s company, there’s no official confirmation that he’ll be starring as Barnabus Collins, because, according to NY mag, “it’s not like the guy enjoys playing Gothic characters in Tim Burton.”
