Ask FlickChick: What's up with Johnny Depp's Dark Shadows, and can you name these movies?Question: Is the Dark Shadows movie dead and, if not, is Johnny Depp still going to be in it? -- HCRDFlickChick: Dark Shadows, a joint project between Johnny Depp's Infinitum-Nihil production company and producer Graham King's GK Films, is still in development, but it doesn't look as though a lot has gone on since mid-2007.

Depp, Law and Farrell to Replace Heath Ledger? | A Beautiful Fraud | 2/15/2008
From Bela Lugosi’s heart attack during Plan 9 from Outer Space and Natalie Wood’s drowning midway through Brainstorm to Brandon Lee’s fatal shooting on the set of The Crow, a number of productions have had to work around the unexpected death of a leading actor.

Oscar Surprises, Part 2: Blanchett, Mortensen, Hal Holbrook and More! | Ask FlickChick | 1/22/2008
A surprising number of movies had to make do with single nominations in the major categories:Viggo Mortensen picked up a best-actor nom as an icy Russian Gangster in David Cronenberg's brutal thriller Eastern Promises, ditto Johnny Depp for Tim Burton's gothic adaptation of Stephen Sondheim's musical Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.

Ask FlickChick: When Animals Attack, Gill Men and More | Ask FlickChick | 9/26/2007
Ask FlickChick: When movie animals attack, gill men and more movie questions...Question: I just saw that there's a movie about killer sheep being released on DVD. Is it some kind of joke or is it serious? I started wondering about other "horror" movies with animal killers, but after the one about the killer rabbits, I couldn't come up with any others. Can you? — Carlos FlickChick: First, the movie you're talking about is the New Zealand-made Black Sheep (2006) and it's neither entirely... read more
Ask Matt | 8/31/2007
I am ambivalent about hearing that Johnny Depp is going to play Barnabas Collins in a new theatrical version of Dark Shadows. I am sure that the movie will bring new blood into the franchise, but I don't think Dark Shadows is a good fit for the big screen. Dark Shadows has always been a long, continuous saga with many characters and storylines, and I don't believe you can simply make a two-hour Dark Shadows movie, no matter how great an actor Johnny Depp is. Do you believe that Dark Shadows is... read more
Johnny Depp in Dark Shadows and Other Casting News | Today's News: Our Take | 7/27/2007
And here I thought I was the only one left who was obsessed with Dark Shadows. But no, apparently Johnny Depp is, too. According to Variety, the erstwhile Cap'n Jack grew up wishing he was the '60s soap's anti-hero, vampire Barnabas Collins — and still does. So now that he's a big movie star and not a starry-eyed kid, he's making it happen, developing a big-screen version of the daytime drama. Oh, please, please, please, can we get Angelina Jolie to play Angelique the Witch?! Those lips,... read more

Per the AP, producer Jerry Bruckheimer, however, qualified the prospect of a fourth voyage, saying, "This is the end for now. Everybody is exhausted and needs some time off.

But despite the fact that his smoldering stare and intense presence should have made him a matinee idol as well, Richard Grieco doesn't give a damn. "Even when the films I've done haven't been good, they've been good characters," he explains to TV Guide Online, "so I'll still take them."
