Johnny Depp Uses Green Tea Diet To Prep For Role As Barnabas Collins

Posted by Dr. Jody Overland on January 29th, 2011

Johnny Depp is following a green tea diet to prepare himself for his forthcoming role as Barnabus Collins in the upcoming movie, ‘Dark Shadows.’

The 47-year-old actor is reportedly drinking gallons of green tea in a bid to lose weight for his role in the upcoming movie ‘Dark Shadows.’ “Johnny is aiming to get down to 140lbs, so he looks as gaunt as possible,” according to sources associated with the film. Depp, who recently starred in Burton’s ‘Alice in Wonderland’ adaptation, is reported to be on a diet focusing on low fructose fruit such as pineapples and strawberries.

Set for release in 2012, the film is described as being a gothic horror tale about the adventures of the vampire named Barnabas Collins based on the original 1960′s TV show by the same name ‘Dark Shadows.’

The TV show starred Jonathan Frid in the role of Barnabus and if Depp can do as good a job as Frid did he will win awards.
