An unknown Irish actress has landed the dream role of JOHANNA opposite JOHNNY DEPP in TIM BURTON's star-studded musical SWEENEY TODD.
Scottish Academy of Music and Drama student JAYNE WISENER will play the ingenue in the film, which also stars Burton's partner HELENA BONHAM CARTER, ALAN RICKMAN and funnyman SACHA BARON COHEN.
Shooting on the film adaptation of the STEPHEN SONDHEIM/HUGH WHEELER musical will begin next month (FEB07).
