ABOUT THIS MOVIE Quotes from Johnny Depp:
"What I'd like to do with [Barnabus] is maybe stretch him out a bit - in the extreme. Just ever-so-slightly take him a little further, beyond what may be considered... corny."

Quotes from others:
"Angelique has a love/hate relationship with Barnabas. She's madly in love him. And he's very attracted to her, too, but hates her. It's very funny, very complicated."

April 24, 2011"I could meet with Johnny and sit down with him and hear him say these lines and talk to him about how he's going to perform this character. That absolutely dictates the way that you write because you have a basis in which to imagine these words being said. It actually makes it easier and it makes it a little more fun to write in that situation. You're like, 'This is a Johnny Depp movie. This is a Tim Burton movie. I know what the pallette of that is and I can draw on it.'"

March 24, 2011"It's been amazing to watch the way that [Tim Burton's] mind works, and how he collaborates with Johnny, and how Johnny's mind works. Also, getting to work with a producer like Richard Zanuck, who did Jaws, Planet of the Apes and The Sound of Music, is just incredible. It's having living legends, all around you. It was intimidating at first because you're walking in with these iconic people, but that goes away pretty quickly, and you get comfortable and realize that everybody is just a normal person."

March 24, 2011"I'm not allowed to say too much about [Dark Shadows]. It's extremely well written, very, very funny, in a Tim Burton way. It's very focused on the actors, and the characters are really rich. My character is a full-on witch and she's completely obsessed with Johnny Depp's character, and she'll do anything to get him."
-- Eva Green
