    Tim Burton and Helena Bonham Carter Sled With Their Kids

    Director Tim Burton and his actress wife Helena Bonham Carter were spotted on Sunday, but there was no sign of Johnny Depp or the weirdness that usually fills Burton flicks, such as "Edward Scissorhands" and "Alice in Wonderland"; That's because instead of staging a scene for his latest blockbuster, the filmmaker, 53, and his British bride, 45, were simply spending the day with their kids, 8-year-old son Billy and 4-year-old daughter Nell, sledding in the snow on London's Primrose Hill.

    Burton had better enjoy his downtime while he can. His packed 2012 schedule includes directing and producing the movie version of 1960s TV series "Dark Shadows" (starring Depp, of course), and directing the stop-motion animated "Frankenweenie" in October. The latest project he's set to produce, 2013's "Big Eyes," which is based on a true story, sounds promising. Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Reynolds will play Margaret and Walter Keane, a married couple whose paintings of doe-eyed children became a pop phenomenon in the '50s and '60s. While Margaret created the art, her husband took sole credit and even signed the paintings, which became an issue when the two divorced and both claimed they were the artist. Will you check it out?

      ugh yahoo get your facts right they're NOT married!!! helena is so awesome.
    • LaikaO  •  3 months ago
      Love his hair & glasses, he looks like some kind of wacky inventor dad out of a Tim Burton movie. For all I know they could be horrible parents, but it sure doesn't look like it. Those kids'll have some real imaginations & creativity.
      • Pisces 3 months ago
        You do realize the man you are describing IS Tim Burton?
      • LaikaO 3 months ago
        Yeah, that's what I meant by an environment that fosters imagination.
        He also looks like a character out of an R. Crumb comic, but I didn't wanna go there...
      • shtstk 3 months ago
        Who cares what he looks like, he is a brilliant person in film as is his wife. As for their parenting skills, how can you comment when you don't even know them or their children?
    • IgboNewaki  •  3 months ago
      I met and chatted with Tim while working on Edward ... He was not real well known at the time but we all knew He was destined for greatness ... I will watch anything He puts His name on ... He is a fine mix of class and genious ...

      He's a director and she's an actress. That's what they do for a living. Why wouldn't they be normal? Never heard the saying "I AM NOT MY JOB".
