Johnny Depp Gives New Take On Being A Vampire In Dark Shadows
Move over Edward Cullen, a new vampire character is set to hit the silver-screen in the summer of 2012.
According to reports, Hollywood superstar actor Johnny Depp will take on the role of a vampire in his forthcoming film Dark Shadows.
Depp, who is know to take upbeat and odd roles in films, will assure the role as vampire Barnabas Collins, in the movie to be directed by his friend Tim Burton.
The movie is about Collins and his interaction with various other monsters, witches and werewolves.
In Tinseltown, Depp is known as a superb actor who can give new life and meaning to an odd character like Captain Jack Sparrow in the Pirates Of The Caribbean movies.

I cannot wait to see this film and see for myself how Depp takes his role as a vampire.

Johnny Depp & Vanessa Paradis On The Rocks?
Word on the street is that Johnny Depp and long-term girlfriend Vanessa Paradis are on the rocks:
Hollywood heavyweight Johnny Depp’s long term relationship with Vanessa Paradis is on the rocks RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned, and the actor is struggling to deal with their crucial problems, says a source.
Johnny, 48, and the mother of his two children, have been arguing constantly and this may be the end for the couple as they head towards Splitsville. “Johnny isn’t handling anything well right now,” a source close to the Pirates of the Caribbean star told RadarOnline.com. “People around him are worried about how Johnny is doing because he and Vanessa seem so fractured right now. Their relationship is heading toward the end.”
While Depp’s movies are doing well, his personal life may be falling apart. “Johnny has started reaching out to lawyers, probably to quietly discuss how to get out of the relationship. They’re not married but they’ve been together for years and have kids together so it isn’t as easy as just breaking up,” the source said. While Johnny has tried to put on a brave face for his children, the source said friends are concerned about him. “Johhny [sic] is so talented at acting, but he doesn’t seem able to hide how badly things are going right now.”
I'm not sure if I buy this, I mean 14 years is a long time - and that's 14 straight years of having every attractive woman in a 20-mile radius of you throw themselves at you, naked. If you can manage to resist that, my gut tells me he's not going anywhere.
