Trailer

"Based on the 19th century legend of Sweeney Todd and the hit Broadway musical with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, Sweeney Todd a.k.a Benjamin Barker returns to London after being sent away by Judge Turpin with the help of a sailor, Anthony Hope. He opens a barber shop above Mrs. Lovett's Meat Pie Shop were she sells "the worst pies in London." With the help of Mrs. Lovett, Todd tries to rid of all the people who have ever done him wrong and hopes to be reunited with his daughter, Joanna, who is now Judge Turpin's ward."

I can't imagine Helena Carter being able to fill the shoes of Angela Lansbury, but no doubt this will be a great movie if you're into musicals grin2.gif.

I was lucky enough to see the original play on Broadway....I don't think anything could beat seeing it on stage....

I agree. The show looks amazing. I only got to see part of it on here. I was hooked from the beginning and musicals aren't something I've been accustomed to favouring.

As soon as I heard they were doing a Sweeney Todd movie, before I knew anything about it. I know Johnny Depp and Tim Burton would be behind it. original.gif Not that I'm complaining, lol.
I love the Sweeney Todd story and cant wait to see the movie!
