tb275-7049191Yep, you read that headline right. Johnny Depp will be playing the Barnabas Collins role in the upcoming Dark Shadows movie. Turns out, he’s fulfilling a life long dream. (Editor’s note: originally Mike typed "live long dream", which may or may not be a typo.)

According to Variety, Warners (who produced the failed revival pilot two years ago) will be handling the drudge work.

No word on the availability of a part for the original Barnabas, Jonathan Frid, who is currently doing a one-man turn as Richard III.

As you may have heard, earlier this week rock legend Keith Richards acknowledged snorting the ashen remains of his father. Within 24 hours, his publicist issued a retraction. April Fools, she said, a few days late.

O.K. Fine. I believed the former, I don’t want to believe the latter, but what the hell it wasn’t my dad.

But it was said by Johnny Depp’s dad – as in, "Keith Richards plays Johnny Depp’s father in Pirates of the Caribbean At World’s End."

There’s a wonderful opportunity for an exciting new ending here. Otherwise, Disney’s spin-meisters are going to have quite a tangled web to weave.

Pirates of the Caribbean At World’s End opens May 25th.
