Johnny Depp Wants To Play Cowboys And Indians…And Mad Hatters And Pirates, Too
Johnny Depp is going to be one busy, busy guy for the next few years, and he’s going to have to make more room on his shelf for all the hats (no pun intended) he’s going to have to wear.  News is that he’s signed on to play both Tonto and the Mad Hatter in two Disney films: Stepping into the iconic role of the Mad Hatter, Depp joins previously announced 18-year-old newcomer Mia Wasikowska, who has been chosen to play Alice. The 3-D “Alice in Wonderland” will reunite one of t

Johnny Depp Headed Back to the Caribbean
Johnny Depp is signing on to don his wig and eye liner yet again for ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ part four. Depp has become famous for his portrayal of Jack Sparrow Captain of the Black Pearl for at least one more film. Lets face it you can not have a pirate movie without Johnny Depp. There is no confirmation on the script or even what it is about or if the rest of the cast will return. I guess if you have Captain Jack Sparrow who needs the rest. I would really miss Orlando Bloom but hey that is just me

One of the other major announcements from yesterday’s Disney Showcase was actually three announcements in one… and they all involve Johnny Depp!

Johnny Depp Is Busy
Don't expect Johnny Depp to return your phone calls anytime soon, because he's going to be tied up for a while. And not tied up in the way you've fantasized about over and over again. The pimps at Disney have announced that Johnny will star in 3 films for them. Depp is officially a Disney whore! He's also the only Disney whore I want to see half-naked on MySpace. Johnny is currently shooting Disney's "Alice in Wonderland" for Tim Burton. He plays the Mad Hatter opposite Mia Wasikowska as Alice and Matt Luc

Jonny Depp Gets More Work

Sadly, Johnny Depp To Play Three More Silly Characters [Casting]
No one's asking Johnny Depp to pursue a boring, traditional Hollywood acting career, but this is just getting ridiculous. The Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas star has been cast in three new movies, all of which are silly, "quirky" character parts that will further obscure the man's innate talent behind a curious mask of ticks and inflections, jaunty gaits and syncopated eye blinks. He'll once again Keith Richards it up in another, the fourth, Pirates of the Caribbean movie (to be titled Pirates of the Carib

Johnny Depp Will Do Pirates of the Caribbean 4!

Pirates of the Caribbean to return for 4th movie
Pirates of the Caribbean is set to return to the big screen with news that Johnny Depp has been signed for the fourth installment of the Disney franchise. Timing on the next movie hasn’t been confirmed yet, nor whether the biggest star (at least for me) Keira Knightley will return. Depp has commitments through to 2010, so the next movie may not appear on screens until 2011 or even 2012.

Orlando's in London, But Will He Get Back into Pirate Mode?
Orlando Bloom flashed a smirk as he left the Ivy Club in London yesterday. He looked cute all zipped up in his leather jacket, even with his motorcycle back in NYC. Now that Johnny Depp has signed on for another Pirates of the Caribbean movie, the first question on our minds is whether or not Orlando will be back to play his sidekick for a fourth time. While Johnny needs no help holding his own on the big screen, it's hard to imagine another pirate movie without Orlando and that handsome smile. Pac
