And the new stills of the film give off a Twilight feel - albeit for more adult fans.
The pictures show just how dark the thriller is as Johnny's character Barnabas Collins is put in a coffin by Eva Green's Angelique Bouchard.
In one image he looks scared as he's chained and placed in the coffin, while Eva looks down at him.

And it is a stark change for the French actress, who sexes up her image for the Tim Burton project with a striking blonde look.
The former Bond Girl looks like a vixen when she channels Jessica Rabbit in a floorlength red halterneck dress, which showed off her cleavage as she seductively stood in a dark hallway.
In another picture, the actress gave a frightening look with a stern pale face, while her nails were painted a dark rouge to match her blood red lips.

But in another she looks more fun loving as she laughs and smiles at Depp's blood sucking character.
The new images also show off the new looks of the rest of the all star line-up.
Helena Bonham Carter also debuted her orange wavy bob as she sits around a table with Johnny Lee Miller, who has a slick blonde hairdo.
Some images of the film were revealed last month as the teaser trailer was released.

But more insight has now been given as stars, including Michelle Pfeiffer and Kick-Ass's Chloe Moretz show off their creepy characters.

And the dark feel to the film is given off even more with images of ghosts, blood splattered walls and gothic house Collinwood Manor.
