The photo at left shows director Tim Burton on the set of his current film, Dark Shadows, on July 26th; filming was taking place at night in Beckhenham Place Park, Beckenham, in South East London, with the park’s golf course closed. Johnny Depp, who plays the vampire Barnabas Collins, was not involved in this sequence; local newspaper reports and tweets from passers-by suggest that Eva Green (who plays Angelique) and Helena Bonham Carter (who plays Dr. Julia Hoffman) — and an intrepid stunt woman — were featured in this scene. Security, as always on a Tim Burton film, was tight, and very few spoilers emerged; if you are curious, you can read more on the Dark Shadows thread on the Zone’s News & Views forum.
