Christopher Lee will be playing Bill Malloy according to imdb. Hope this isn't old news.
After the Empire article there was speculation that he would be playing Bill Malloy. But the listing on IMDb is the first somewhat official place that's come out and identified his role as such. Thanks for the heads up.
And speaking of IMDb, I've just noticed that the main cast is no longer being listed according to their MOVIEmeter rankings. I don't know how true it is, but I did read on IMDb that once a film finishes shooting and billing has been set, the IMDb cast listings reflect the official billing. IF that is true, then it seems as billing will be somewhat different from what we'd expected and might possibly be something like this:
Johnny Depp Eva Green Michelle Pfeiffer
Dark Shadows
Jonny Lee Miller Chloë Grace Moretz Gulliver McGrath
with
Helena Bonham Carter Jackie Earle Haley
and
Bella Heathcote
Thomas McDonell seems to have been demoted down to the costarring section. But then, presumably he will only have a small part...
215 days 2 hours 17 minutes 54 seconds until the day the Depp/Burton Dark Shadows is released(ET)!!
