Dark Shadows Filming Set to Start…

Way back in July of 2007, it was announced that Johnny Depp was going to team with Tim Burton for a big screen adaptation of the cult tv classic Dark Shadows.  Although over the last 3 1/2 years there’s been some movement, it was pretty much just talk.

That may have changed today, since Slashfilm has posted that filming will begin in April 2011.   An April start date sounds good to me… especially since they didn’t specify it would be on the 1st.
