Current Talk '24 I / Re: It's official: Dark Shadows returns as a film with Johnny Depp: **NEWS: #266
« on: June 11, 2008, 04:37:31 AM »This article in December, 07, August had stated at his website that he was working on a secret Tim Burton live action movie project and he himself could not divulge its name. Was it DS?

Apparently we're not the only ones speculating the Depp/DS film was most probably the project August was referring to in his blog because, since you posted this last week, I've come across several reports about Burton and August's involvement that are doing the exact same thing. Interestingly, though, August's posting on his blog was earlier than we originally thought because he made it back on November 27th. That, of course, means he's been attached even longer - though that still doesn't change the fact that he couldn't have begun working on the script until after the writers' strike ended on February 12th.
(August's blog posting also shows that you can't always believe what you read on the IMDB - but then, we already knew that. )
