Johnny Depp loves playing kooky characters doesn’t he? He’s not like those other actors who do action movies. Oh no. He plays guitar, smokes cigarettes and says having your photo taken is like being raped.
That’s our Johnny!
And now, in a move that will stagger you daft, he’s going to take on the role of children?s author Dr Seuss in a new biopic. That’s not like him is it? How very peculiar. He might even do his Hunter S. Thompson/Jack Sparrow hand wafty thing too. Amazing. What a dreamboat.
Seuss – who was born with the perfectly great name of Theodor Seuss Geisel – is of course, behind some of the best-selling (and more importantly, best-loved) children?s books EVER.
Like what? Well, he penned Horton Hears A Who!, The Cat In The Hat and How The Grinch Stole Christmas. So there. Haven’t read them? Go hang.
Seuss started off drawing commercials, before making political cartoons during World War 2. He then went on to pen over 40 children’s books which are all great or something (we’ve stopped caring in the space of two small paragraphs, yes).
And now, Universal are producing a film about him and mercifully, there won’t be much CGI polluting the screen. A massive blessing.
And yup, Depp is in the driver’s seat for the main role.
If only those pesky cameras weren’t so keep on raping him all the time.
