Interesting. But like I said, the article that ProfStokes provided us the link to made it seem like Burton has his hands full for the next two years, if not beyond. However, at the rate things are progressing due to the writers' strike and who knows what else might happen in the future, Depp's DS film might not be anywhere near ready to go into production for another two years or beyond, so perhaps things could easily work out to have Burton on board. Though whether or not having Burton on board would be a good thing remains to be seen.
