Anytime Johnny Depp and Tim Burton get together for a film, fans know to expect the unexpected, particularly with their retellings of familiar stories like
"Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and "Alice in Wonderland" and their next highly anticipated project, the big-screen adaptation of '60s vampire soap "Dark Shadows."
The fan fervor surrounding "Shadows" hit a high point recently when photos leaked of a heavily made-up Depp in his full Barnabas Collins costume, followed by the production's first official photo of the entire cast posed family portrait-style and Burton in action on set.
When MTV News caught up with Depp recently as he promoted "The Rum Diary," which hits theaters October 28, we asked what inspired the highly stylized look of the character.
