Johnny Depp Stars in Darker Ebenezer: A Christmas Carol Trailer
Johnny Depp plays Ebenezer Scrooge in a new movie based on A Christmas Carol.
Scrooge is rich but cares more about money than people.
On Christmas Eve, the ghost of his former business partner, Jacob Marley, visits him.
Marley warns Scrooge that he must change his ways.
Three more ghosts then show Scrooge his past, present and possible future.
These visions make him think about how he has treated others.
The movie follows his supernatural journey toward changing as a person.
This version keeps the classic story but gives it a darker and scarier style.
