In either another great casting or another terribly annoying April Fool’s joke, Kick-Ass star Chloe Moretz has signed on for Tim Burton‘s Dark Shadows. The young actress joins an already tremendously talented cast, featuring Johnny Depp, Michelle Pfeiffer, Helena Bonham Carter and Eva Green, as Carolyn Stoddard. For those familiar with the TV show from which Dark Shadows is based, you’ll know that Carolyn is the daughter of Elizabeth Collins Stoddard (Pfeiffer), the matriarch of the family. Right now, Dark Shadows (we think) is still aiming to start shooting soon and will probably release sometime in 2012. Unfortunately, we can’t yet confirm if Moretz’s character will channel her inner Kick-Ass and stab someone in the forehead while watch the blood drip down their face; but hey, this is a Tim Burton film, so maybe!
