Johnny Depp and Tim Burton join forces
again in a big-screen adaptation of Stephen Sondheim's award-winning

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.
