He really does have a thing for Keith Richards, doesn't he?

Johnny Depp is planning to direct a new documentary about the Rolling Stones star, his first project behind the camera in over ten years!!

The two are reportedly friends, and Depp famously claimed the rock legend's boozy, incoherent bahavior was his inspiration for Cap'n Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of the Caribbean films - enough to warrant Richards to appear in Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End as Sparrow's dad!!

Eh. Might be interesting, so we'll probs check it out.

Besides the fact that Keith Richards is an amazing hot mess, we're curious to see if Johnny boy is as good behind the camera as he is in front of it.

Will U be interested in tuning in??

      Loves me sum both 'o them!

      Johnny Depp hates Americans. He says hating things about US, his audience, all the time.

      He calls American people "greedy"

      Meanwhile he greedily grabs as much cash from us as he can and stuffs his bank accounts.

      Johnny Depp can rot.

      Who the fuck are the Rolling Stones?

      Re: lopezfanyeah – Let's call a spade a spade. Need I elaborate??

      Because I'm sure Johnny Depp leaked this to Vladamir Ivanascoop of The Transylvania News on Monday. Though perhaps Depp's conducting an experiment on how fast "news" travels on the intraweb. Don't believe everything you read Perez!

      lopezfan, he does not hate America. It was taken out of context by stern (german magazine).



    7. 7

      YES YES YES



    8. 8

      I will absolutely watch this. These two are legends in their own respects. And Johnny Depp, as much as I'd like to watch him on camera, I wonder what he'll do behind the camera.

      Re: lopezfanyeah – do you have the interview where this was said? I'm genuinely interested now.

    12. 12

      i love keith. he comes in to the restaurant that i worked at last summer. always smoking marb reds and playing chinese checkers with herve the owner, he's such a silly ole man.



    13. 13

      Hell yeah, I'd tune in! Regardless of how you feel about his lifestyle, his personality is just a stand-out and who doesn't love an eccentric?!



    14. 14

      i would definately watch this!
      i love keith richards and johnny depp and their bromance lol
      and johnny has already directed a movie, called The Brave, and i LOVED it.
      so i think he'll do a great job :)

      Keith is a thousand times more interesting than most of the vacuous 'celebs' that are featured on your site, most of whom probably won't even still be famous this time next year



    16. 16

      Re: lopezfanyeah – I'm not sure what was actually said but I highly doubt he's talking about the average American here. Isn't it greed that is destroying this country? AIG yes but also Skank of America, Shitty Bank list goes on and on and lets not forget Bernie Madoff. Johnny Depp makes a lot of money because people like him and his movies. I'm sure he lives a fabulous lifestyle (wouldn't you?) He also give A LOT of $ to charity. Just because he isn't a media whore and tells every reporter every dollar he donates doesn't mean he isn't one of the top celebrity humanitarians. He is!



    18. 18

      Big fan of both. Richards has had one hell of a life. I will definitely tune in.



    19. 19

      leak the sex tape already perez (;

    20. @v@ says – reply to this

      Keith Richards is a legendary character. I'm interested in Depp's take on what should be a riveting documentary. Lord knows there will be enough material that the problem will be choosing what to leave out, rather than what to put in. Those were the days, man.



    21. 21

      ABSOLUTELY!
