She's only 14. I suppose it is possible they could have made Carolyn much younger. But still...

Thomas McDonell (Disney's upcoming Prom) is going to play "young Barnabas," which makes sense as he does definitely resemble Johnny Depp...
Though that begs the question of why they would even need a "young Barnabas"? It's not a miniseries with the luxury of exploring many periods of Barnabas' life. And if there is any sort of flashback, one would think that flashing back to an adult Barnabas and his relationship with Josette and his becoming cursed would be more than enough to handle in a film that will likely run about two hours or less. Though I suppose they could have come up with something that's touched on briefly in Barnabas' youth that could factor into his adult life. But still...
I guess only time will tell if that info is real or someone pulling a fast one.
But speaking of IMDb and something that is real, I see where Rebecca Thomas has been added to the film's Art Department as the action prop buyer. I have to confess that's a position that I don't believe I've ever even heard of - or at least one I've never paid attention to as it's gone by in any film's credits. I wonder what actually constitutes an action prop, and just where does one buy them?
