Tim Burton and Johnny Depp ALREADY have another joint project lined up after Alice in Wonderland!
Exciting stuff!!!!
According to legendary producer Richard D. Zanuck , Tim is set to direct Johnny in the film adaptation of the late 60-s ‘gothic’ TV soap, Dark Shadows, that he’s overseeing.
We bet the upcoming flick’s lady lead will be played by Helena Bonham Carter, right?
Of course she is! Duh, its perfect and I’m not complaining.
Burton + Depp + Bonham Carter is always proven to be a winning formula!
Plus, we love vampires!!!

Film on the life of Roger Moore is being planned

The memoirs of movie legend Roger Moore could be turned into a Hollywood biopic and Johnny Depp is all set to star in that movie being planned on the life of the former James Bond actor.

Johnny Depp??? Now those who are scouting to have this chap play Roger Moore should hear to what I have to say. You will have to place more actors on your books. You must know that other leading actors would not be part of a project that stars Johnny Depp.

Personally I have nothing against Johnny and he really can act, but he won’t be able to do proper justice to the demand of playing Roger Moore. May be he should not take up the role him self.

No doubt he played the role of a pirate really well, and there will be other good movies not connected to being a pirate no doubt, but don’t get carried away. There are other talented actors in Hollywood who would really do the job much better. We do not need a debonair to play Roger Moore although that could be a pre-requisite for some fans.

Vanessa Paradis for Miu Miu

One of Vanessa Paradis’s pictures for the new Miu Miu campaign has leaked. The photo was taken by fashion photo super duo Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott. The French actress, singer and long time girlfriend of Johnny Depp, is the new face of the fashion house. Vanessa took Kirsten Dunst’s place as the face of the Italian style house. Miuccia Prada supposedly chose the French songstress because she casts a “certain powerful independence”. Vanessa looks great in the picture but I’m not totally blown over. Maybe it’s because we usually see her all glammed up anyway so it’s not that far of a stretch.

Newlywed singer Beyonce Knowles, Jay-Z and The Police made it into the world’s most powerful celebrity list.

Oprah Winfrey was at number one. The TV talk show queen topped the annual Forbes magazine’s Celebrity 100 list once again, beating golf superstar Tiger Woods and Hollywood beauty Angelina Jolie.

Soccer star David Beckham - who moved to Los Angeles Galaxy last July in a multi-million dollar deal - made it into the top five for the first time.

The Forbes list is designed to reflect the influence of a celebrity in any one year. It looks at how much a celebrity is paid, and how much press, internet and TV coverage they get.

While ‘Harry Potter’ author J.K. Rowling only made it to number nine, she ranked as number one in the highest earners list. The rest of the Celebrity 100 list is compiled of Johnny Depp, Jay-Z and Brad Pitt. Major stars to drop out of the prestigious list include double Oscar-winner Tom Hanks, new mom Jessica Alba and superstar singer Elton John, who was last year’s number seven.

Forbes magazine’s 2008 Celebrity 100, top 10:

1. Oprah Winfrey
2. Tiger Woods
3. Angelina Jolie
4. Beyonce Knowles
5. David Beckham
6. Johnny Depp
7. Jay-Z
7. The Police
9. J.K. Rowling
