Take a peek at the last film ever to have Heath Ledger perform in (above).

The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus also stars Jude Law, Johnny Depp, & Colin Farrell, who all stepped in for Heath after his death.

It looks visually breathtaking, but mentally exhausting.

What do U think?

As we first told you about back in December…

Tim Burton is jumping on the vampire bandwagon and announced himself - officially - that his next project would be a remake of the 60's cult classic Dark Shadows. The story follows an ancient 175-year-old vampire named Barnabas Collins, who pines away for a lost love.

And who will be playing this iconic vampire? We'll give you one guess…Johnny Depp. Who else is even in Tim Burton films?

Though the production might have to wait until Johnny finishes the fourth installment of Pirates of the Caribbean, they both couldn't be thrilled more about their eighth collaboration.

Johnny says: "I was obsessed with Barnabas Collins. I have photographs of me holding Barnabas Collins posters when I was five or six."

We're going to suppose that Helena Bonham Carter will be in it as well, just because, you know, it's a Tim Burton movie.

Does this flick idea intrigue U?

Responding to Johnny Depp''s wish to portray her in a film, the legendary Carol Channing has given her approval, saying:

"It is not a new concept to me. Not at all. Men have been imitating me for as long as I can remember. In fact, most of the impersonations I have seen have had a five o'clock shadow. I imagine, when or if Johnny should portray me, he will succeed. Because a true artist, such as himself, is one who loves his or her creation and therefore represents their honest view of that which they are creating. I think he is a gifted performer and I would be very proud, as well as interested in seeing what his vision of me would be. Johnny is someone I would very much like to help me and my foundation to bring the Arts back into the the public school system in America."

We have to agree with her - having Depp portray you would be an honor!

Johnny Depp has had an amazing career, filled with a variety of roles. However, there is still one he is holding out for!

When asked about future projects and the ultimate role he wants to pursue, Johnny replied, "My dream role would be to play musical legend Carol Channing in a biopic of her life. I love her, I really do, she's amazing…With all the digital technology these days, I could probably pull it off!"

We would pay to see him gender-bender his way into this movie. Someone get a pen and starting writing the flick.

Or maybe Johnny could dress up like Carol Channing so we could see what it would look like.

If he's game, step up Hollywood!

Johnny Depp gives great tranny!

Gorges!!!

A second round of stunning promo photos for Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland film have arrived!

We're loving the styling of Mia Wasikowska as Alice - it channels more of a Lewis Carroll-Alice rather than Disney.

Plus Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter and Anne Hathaway look just as fantastic in their trannylicious makeup as they did in the older shots!

Thoughts???

This is the kind of thing that makes Johnny Depp not only an exceptional actor but also a super awesome dude!

While in the UK promoting his newest flick, Public Enemies, Johnny gave a few very sick kids the thrill of a lifetime. He went to visit them at the Great Ormond Street Hospital dressed as his Pirates Of The Caribbean character Captain Jack Sparrow!!!

Amazeballs!

Johnny visited several wards, including the one his daughter was admitted to when she was treated for kidney failure in 2007, and graciously posed for pictures with all his young fans.

A source recalls: "Johnny was so friendly with all the children in the ward and they absolutely loved his pirate outfit. He spoke to lots of the youngsters and staff - and made their day by posing for pictures with them all."

He's done this kind of thing before. And for him to do it again, that just makes Depp first-rate class act in our book.

Bravo, Johnny!

At least in China!

A new Chinese government-mandated internet filter software deems pictures of Paris Hilton, Garfield, roast pork and Johnny Depp as harmful to your moral health!

Beijing ordered that all personal computers sold in China after July 1 must have the Green Dam software installed, which is designed to block pornographic and violent images.

How is roast pork violent or pornographic?!

Critics of the software fear that it will be used to extend censorship!

When the software is installed, it blocks harmless images such as the film poster for cartoon Garfield, dishes of flesh colored cooked pork and a close up of Johnny Depp's face.

Maybe they are scared that people will start feeling their cat Italian food, roast pork may satisfy the urge for human flesh and Johnny's face would get the ladies all riled up!

With the image filter off, searches with words like "nude" are blocked, but if you're on the hunt for adult websites you can find links to soft and hardcore porn.

Looks like someone need to go back to the drawing board!

Unfortunately, the software has been programmed to filter categories including "gay" and "illegal activities", which health activists fear will limit resources to sexual health and AIDS education.

Government critics worry the "illegal activities" section will cover political and social activities not approved by Beijing, which would further impede on the freedom of their citizens!

Shame!

Anything Johnny Depp touches turns to gold!!!!

During a Christie's auction of entertainment items, Edward Scissorhands' scissorhands was one of the top earners, selling for an astounding $16,000!!!

That's some expensive scrap metal!

The prop, composed of steel, leather, painted rubber and foam-latex, was only expected to garner $5,000!!!!!

We're sure the winner of this fetish item has some fun-filled weekends in their future!!!

Why is Johnny Depp looking like Mickey Rourke all of the sudden?????

Depp waltzed into the premiere of Public Enemies in LA on Tuesday night looking like he hadn't showered in days!

And what's with the pube-beard???

Why, Johnny, why?!

It's the R-Patz disease!

He still looks hot, though, dirty or not.
