New Look At ‘Dark Shadows’ Cast Includes Alice Cooper

Published

on

More images from the set of Dark Shadows have emerged, and this time we get a look at Alice Cooper with some of the film’s cast. I kind of expected Tim Burton to do something new with his look, which this photo certainly does not reflect. Then again, these look more like snapshots of the cast hanging out, so perhaps he’s not in character at all. These snapshots also include original cast members from the old TV show, David Selby, Lara Parker, Jonathan Frid, and Kathryn Leigh Scott.

The story focuses on Collins, who was transformed into a vampire by his jilted lover, Angelique, way back in the 1700s and buried. He’s just been dug up, and attempts to reintegrate with his descendants, led by Michelle Pfeiffer’s Elizabeth and Jonny Lee Miller’s Roger – despite the fact that Angelique is still around and still not in a forgiving mood.

Directed by Tim Burton, the adaptation of the TV soap hits theaters May 11, 2012. That makes for the odd situation of being a major release that’s only two months away and doesn’t have a trailer yet.
