A bit late on this (because the Google Alert came in yesterday but I didn't check my e-mail yesterday) but in an interview with New York Magazine that's mostly about
Camelot, Eva Green confirms that she will be using an American accent for Angelique. Of course, she's already intimated as much elsewhere, though some fans on various blogs had chosen to believe that she was actually speaking of Lara Parker's Angelique during the Leviathans storyline and not her own character in the Depp/DS film.

Changing reels, a couple other remarks:
I'd be surprised if the Depp/DS film went the cattle attack route. At first the original DS was very skittish about having human attacks take place, so that was the only reason the cattle business was even brought into things. But vampire stories have no such skittishness these days.
And if any sequels do come along, and if they were to base them in some part on the original series, I'd love to see them completely skip the whole Adam business. The '91 Series was going to completely skip it, mostly because they believed a cured Barnabas was a far less interesting Barnabas. I could see why Burton and Co. might possibly like the idea because the exploration of Barn's humanity could be meaty - but I would think they'd have to have the Adam cure ultimately fail with Barn somehow becoming recursed. However, I'd much prefer to see them move on to Quentin's haunting - or to even go in some completely new direction not done on the original series.
