Martin Scorsese is set to helm an authorized biopic of Frank Sinatra and….. Universal’s first choice for the role is the talented Johnny Depp.
The film will not require that its lead know how to sing, as it will utilize Sinatra’s own recordings through a deal with Frank Sinatra Enterprises.
It will be the first time that Scorsese and Depp work together and the results ought to be interesting.
After all, Johnny was a kick ass Hunter S Thompson!
