Johnny Depp: Acts as Pancho Villa
Actor Johnny Depp's looking to get back into the world of biopics, eyeing a role as Mexican revolutionary Pancho Villa for Serbian director Emir Kusturica, with whom he worked on 1993's Arizona Dream.
Kusturica's film will not only boast Depp in the leading role but also plans to enter the competition against Percy Jackson for Longest Movie Title, as it is presently encumbered with the name Seven Friends of Pancho Villa and the Woman with Six Fingers.
The director and his co-writer Gordan Mihic based their script on James Carlos Blake's novel The Friends Of Pancho Villa, which records both the man's life of fighting the good fight, robbing the malicious rich and making with the sweet lady-pleasing love.
