Michael Sheen (ALICE IN WONDERLAND) is in early talks to star in Warner Bros. Pictures' DARK SHADOWS.

Sheen would star opposite an already heavyweight cast, including Johnny Depp, Eva Green, Helena Bonham Carter, Michelle Pfeiffer, Jackie Earle Haley, and Bella Heathcote. DARK SHADOWS, based on the esteemed 1960's television serial of the same name, is a gothic-horror tale centering on the life of vampire Barnabas Collins (Depp) and his run-ins with various monsters, witches, werewolves, and ghosts.

Tim Burton (EDWARD SCISSORHANDS) is attached to direct from an adapted screenplay penned by horror novelist Seth Grahame-Smith.

Production on the fantasy-horror film is expected to begin next month.
