Posters promoting, ‘Sweeney Todd’, Johnny Depp’s new film have been scrapped by movie bosses due to major historical inaccuracies.The poster shows Depp, main character in the film, sitting in front of a giant skylight with Big Ben, famous London landmark, clearly visible in the background. Though the Tim Burton movie is set in the early 19th century – 15 years before the clock tower was built. Angry film fans and critics have complained forcing studio bosses to scrap the posters. They have however had a new version rushed into production to publicize the movies release, later this month (Dec07).
