Sleepy Hollow is a 1999 Gothic horror film directed by Tim Burton from a screenplay by Andrew Kevin Walker. Co-produced by Paramount Pictures, Mandalay Pictures, Scott Rudin Productions, American Zoetrope, and Tim Burton Productions, it is based on Washington Irving's 1820 short story "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow", and stars Johnny Depp and Christina Ricci, with Miranda Richardson, Michael Gambon, Casper Van Dien, and Jeffrey Jones in supporting roles. The plot follows New York City police constable Ichabod Crane (Depp), who is sent to investigate a series of brutal murders in the upstate village of Sleepy Hollow, where he becomes romantically involved with Katrina Van Tassel (Ricci), the daughter of the richest resident of the town (Gambon).

Sleepy Hollow began development in 1993 at Paramount Pictures, with Kevin Yagher originally set to direct Andrew Kevin Walker's script as a low-budget slasher film. Disagreements with Paramount resulted in Yagher being demoted to prosthetic makeup designer, and Burton was hired to direct in June 1998. Filming took place from November 1998 to May 1999. The film was an international co-production between Germany and the United States.

Sleepy Hollow had its world premiere at Mann's Chinese Theatre on November 17, 1999, and was released in the United States on November 19, by Paramount Pictures. It received positive reviews from critics, and grossed $207 million. It won the Academy Award for Best Art Direction.
