Playbill reports that DreamWorks has given the green light to Tim Burton's production of Stephen Sondheim's Broadway hit Sweeney Todd, to star frequent Burton collaborator Johnny Depp. The film is tentatively slated for a late 2007 release. Curiously, neither Sondheim.com nor Sondheim.org make any mention of the film adaptation.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest is set for a December 5 US DVD release (subject to change). Plans also call for the DVD to be released in Europe in time for the Christmas gift-giving season. Bonus features and extra material to be released on the DVD have not been announced.

Watch for European advertising beginning in September featuring Captain Jack and other characters from Disney's films promoting this and other upcoming DVD releases. It is currently not known whether the advertisements will feature new footage or simply reuse existing material, or whether the same advertising will be shown in American media.
