Warner Bros. Pictures is pleased to offer exciting new
footage from the highly anticipated 2008 worldwide release
of Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.


    Johnny Depp and Tim Burton join forces again in a
big-screen adaptation of Stephen Sondheim's award-winning
musical thriller "Sweeney Todd." Depp stars in
the title role as a man unjustly sent to prison who vows
revenge, not only for that cruel punishment, but for the
devastating consequences of what happened to his wife and
daughter. When he returns to reopen his barber shop,
Sweeney Todd becomes the Demon Barber of Fleet Street who
"shaved the heads of gentlemen who never thereafter
were heard from again." Joining Depp is Helena Bonham
Carter as Mrs. Lovett, Sweeney's amorous accomplice, who
creates diabolical meat pies. The cast also includes Alan
Rickman, who portrays the evil Judge Turpin, who sends
Sweeney to prison and Timothy Spall as the Judge's wicked
associate Beadle Bamford and Sacha Baron Cohen is a rival
barber, the flamboyant Signor Adolfo Pirelli.

    The Parkes/MacDonald and Zanuck Company production is
based on a musical by Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler
from an adaptation of Christopher Bond's play.  Music and
lyrics by Stephen Sondheim.
