Is it a musical adaptation? There is a straight play version of it.
I just can't see Depp singing his way through one of Sondheim's most demanding scores.
And I think Burton does have the macabre touch needed, I think he may make it too dark.
I thought Rob Marshall was going to do after he was done with Memoirs of a Geisha. Sigh.
