New 'Dark Shadows' Photos Reveal Bloody Johnny Depp

Much ado has been made over the first photos of "Dark Shadows," Tim Burton and Johnny Depp's next highly-anticipated film together. First we got a look at Depp in crazy heavy white makeup, which had a lot of dedicated fans more than miffed, and then came the first official photo, complete with proper lighting and coloring, which helped alleviate those aforementioned fan fears. And today we have even more Burton/Depp/Dark Shadowy goodness to pore over, courtesy a newsy feature in Empire, and two brand new photos, which are once again likely to raise a stir. In the two newest photos, we see perfectly coiffed and '70s style appropriate Michelle Pfeiffer as Elizabeth Stoddard, and Jonny Lee Miller as Roger Collins seated at a dinner table, with Burton directing in the middle. The mood in the photo is similar to the family portrait-style pic previously released: somber and dark. The second photo is a close-up of Burton and Depp working out a hand gesture of some sort. Depp is once again in that creepy white make-up, along with what looks to be an equally white burned or mauled left hand (burned by sun exposure, perhaps?). Other newsworthy mentions in Empire's story revolve around the film's setting, and if we'll be viewing the final cut in two dimensions or three. "Tim and Johnny took a long time explaining exactly why it had to be 1972," screenwriter Seth Grahame-Smith told the magazine. "1969 was too early and 1973 was too late. 1972 is right at the time when the hippie movement and all its peace and love is dying out and being replaced by this me-me-me generation in the '70s who are all about showing their wealth and having everything." And for the anti-3D film purists out there, producer Richard Zanuck revealed you will be happy to learn that "Dark Shadows" will be presented in good old fashioned 2D. "We didn't want to be categorized as another 3D extravaganza, because this isn't. We have action sequences, but mostly it's interaction between characters, and that's where the humor and the story come from." What do you think of the new photos?

He didn't know who I used to be, which he adopted us and needed lower the license plate combined using the studio track it lower! Then he discovered I used to be the daughter of Edgar Bergen and it is at fact 13. He anxiously anxiously waited a few years, which we increased being very close pals once i was 22 or 23 -- always just pals. STORY: John Calley Dies at 81 He was piercingly intelligent and one of the funniest males I've ever met. He appeared to become very discreet within the eccentricity but enormously complicated. He examined harmonics and particulars in the piano but couldn't participate in it. Then when i had been neighbors in Benedict Canyon, he were living using what happen to be John Barrymore's guesthouse, which i were living using what was the aviary. I'd a piglet, plus it would commute between us, but John spent the weekends along with his curtains closed, wearing a flannel nightshirt and nightcap and reading through through scripts -- his approach to escape the ceaseless sunniness of L.A. He'd just burrow in and plow through scripts. He was always reclusive, though he fought against against fairly feebly against it. But there's nobody more charming -- which was and also to his disadvantage because it saved people far. EXCLUSIVE: Mister Howard Stringer Recalls John Calley He'd an automobile collection making lots of money purchasing and selling cars and gold and watercraft in the morning several hours he couldn't generate deficits. He saved an amount of vintage cars in Vancouver but wouldn't ever really bring them. Which he am generous. He'd give his pals his watercraft to take advantage of, but he hardly used them themselves. He were living shockingly simply. The man stood a fortune, but he were living in this apartment he loved in Century City it absolutely was most likely probably the most depressing, dark apartment, as well as the lobby smelled of old food. I saved saying, "John, why don't you have a lovely place for every one of these people visiting you?" -- as they had site site visitors constantly, usually women. He just prospered on deprivation somewhat. It absolutely was just a little two-mattress room that's where he died. I suppose that, like most of us, he fought along with his other self, but he been effective. He was witty and never arrogant and intensely loyal. There's nobody remotely like him.
