Corpse Bride Merchandise. A reluctant groom, a bride he's never met before. A corpse bride. Director Tim Burton returns to his animation roots with his latest dimensional animation blockbuster, Corpse Bride. Victor (voiced by Johnny Depp) is betrothed to Victoria, but he's nervous...VERY nervous. Running into the woods to cool down and practice his vows, he inadvertently "marries" the Corpse Bride (voiced by Helena Banham Carter), a woman who died years ago on her wedding day...and macabre, musical fun ensues!
