Cohen to team with Burton and Depp
Sacha Baron Coehn, following the enormous success of Borat, plans to
follow it up with a role in Tim Burton's Sweeny Todd. Sweeny Todd will
star Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter and Sacha Baron Cohen.
variety had the news -
Cohen will play Signor Adolfo Pirelli, a barber who becomes the
nemesis of Sweeney Todd. Todd's the barber who teams with the
murderess Mrs. Lovett (Helena Bonham Carter) to kill people, grind
them up and use them in her meat pies.
Based on Stephen Sondheim's musical, in the hands of Mr Burton, I
think we can prepare ourselves for a special treat!
