Sacha Baron Cohen has firmed plans to follow "Borat" with some barbering in "Sweeney Todd," the screen version of the Stephen Sondheim musical Tim Burton will shoot for DreamWorks and Warner Bros.

Sweeny Todd, who has a deal with meat-pie maker Mrs. Lovett, to provide fillings for his meat pies. Using his charm and tonsorial skills, Todd lures wealthy, respectable customers into his Fleet Street barber shop, where his mechanical chair dumps them head-first down into the basement. If the fall doesn't do the trick, Sweeney is happy to finish off the customer with his razor.
