Johnny Depp's Slumming It in NYC, but Is He Still Hot?

Image
Andrew Rocke / Splash News Let's face it, girls, life just isn't fair. Johnny Depp was caught on the streets of NYC this week looking more like a train wreck engineer than a movie star, but he still makes us want to go, "Woo! Wooooo!" READ: Hi-Yo Action! Johnny Depp's Lone Ranger Finally Starts Shooting No matter how uncoordinated his outfit, no matter how long since he last bathed, no matter how outlandish the getup, Johnny isquite simplyalways hot stuff. (OK, his Edward Scissorhands outfit was a bit off-putting, but frankly that's only because of the puckered lipstick. All those belts and buckles looked great on him!) There's just something about his easy, cool style that makes him look like he's one step ahead of the fashion curve, or perhaps he's just above it. Seriously, look at this! He even makes that denim and leather-trimmed jacket look good! Rihanna should have such luck . PHOTOS: Johnny Depp & Vanessa Paradis: Romance Rewind

Johnny Depp shows off signature quirky style in New York

By Jennifer Barton on Wednesday 29 February 2012 Rex Features The under-the-radar Pirates of the Caribbean star took some style tips from alter-ego Captain Jack Sparrow as he stepped out in an array of scarves and necklaces and trademark headgear. JOHNNY DEPP & VANESSA PARADIS: RELATIONSHIP IN PICS Depp was snapped leaving his New York apartment in a bizarre ensemble consisting of striped trousers, a printed T-shirt and blue jacket with leather panels. But it was the star's signature kooky accessories , which included a fedora with a hole in it , aviator shades, beaded necklaces, a printed scarf, multiple rings, pocket chain and a handkerchief, which really got the notoriously private actor noticed. Now, while we admire a man who isn't afraid to take a fashion risk once in a while, and thoroughly approve of well-styled scruffiness, it wouldn't have hurt to ditch one - or five - of the accessories .

Johnny Depp's 'Lone Ranger' remake begins filming

Image
Johnny Depp 's Lone Ranger remake has begun filming in New Mexico. The update of the Western classic has a budget of $215 million, and stars Depp as Tonto and Armie Hammer as the Lone Ranger. The movie will differ from the original material by making Hammer's character the sidekick and Depp's the lead. Depp told Entertainment Weekly : "I remember watching it as a kid, with Jay Silverheels and Clayton Moore... I liked Tonto, even at that tender age, and knew Tonto was getting the unpleasant end of the stick here. That's stuck with me." The 48-year-old actor said that he would like to "reinvent the relationship" between Tonto and The Lone Ranger, which played on Native American stereotypes in the original '70s television show. The movie, which was announced in the summer of last year , has faced a number of setbacks in casting and budgeting. It is being produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and directed by Gore Verbinski . Helena Bonham Carter , Tom Wi...

Inspiration For Johnny Depp's Blow Character Has Cancer Scare

02/28/2012. (TMZ) George Jung -- the prolific cocaine smuggler portrayed by Johnny Depp in the movie "Blow" -- got a temporary get out of prison free card recently ... after doctors spotted a potentially cancerous growth on his face. For those unfamiliar, Jung -- who's currently serving a 15-year stretch in Texas federal prison -- is credited with sparking the '80s cocaine frenzy ... even netting him a cool $100 million at one point. TMZ has learned ... Jung was allowed to leave the confines of the prison in December ... and was transported to a nearby facility so doctors could remove a suspicious mole on his nose.

He went to the East Coast and skipped out on all the Oscars fun happening back in LA. Despite missing the show, Johnny's been spending a great deal of time in and around Hollywood.

Gore said, "It helps when you're friends with Johnny Depp. I mean, we needed money and once Johnny said he was in, things started to happen." Back to Story

Johnny Depp has always been on the eccentric side of the fashion spectrum. Rocking silver chains, floppily hates and blue-tinted sunglasses, the actor generally looks like the amateur magician uncle we never had. These photos of Depp out and about in New York today with a filthy fedora and discolored teeth, however, are beyond the fashion pale. Is that why Depp didnt attend the Oscars, where his film Rango won for Best Animated Feature Film? He was getting his hat punctured and his smiled professionally browned?

"Rango" wins Oscar for best animated feature film

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - " Rango ," starring Johnny Depp as the voice of a pet chameleon, won the Oscar for best animated feature film on Sunday. Depp voices Rango, who ends up stuck in a desert town called Dirt, where he takes on the role of sheriff and leads a quest to replenish the town's water supply. The film is directed by Gore Verbinski , the man behind three of the blockbuster "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies that also star Depp. "Rango" is Verbinski 's first animated movie. "Someone asked me if this film was for kids," Verbinski said as he accepted the award. "It was certainly created by a bunch of grown-ups acting like children." "Rango" has won a slew of other awards, including a BAFTA and a People's Choice Award for favorite animated movie voice. The movie has taken more than $245 million at the worldwide box-office and also features the voices of Ilsa Fisher, Abigail Breslin, and Ned Beatty. (Writing...

Rango wins best animated feature Oscar

The voice of Johnny Depp helped Rango to beat animations including Kung Fu Panda 2 and Puss in Boots for an Oscar. The colourful chameleon beat rivals including Kung Fu Panda 2, Puss in Boots and two foreign bids - France's A Cat in Paris and Spain's Chico Rita. The Academy's choice of a swivel-eyed reptile could be said to be brave, given his lack of the usual child- and merchandise- friendly qualities associated with blockbuster animated movies - pandas, cats or toys. The movie's quirky tone and offbeat humour are striking. 'Tone is everything. I love films with that singularity of voice,' said Gore Verbinski, director of Rango and of the first three Pirates of the Caribbean films starring Depp. 'We tried to make a movie that made us happy and luckily we found an audience... I think if you work the other way around, ideas become diluted,' he told AFP. Rango tells the story of a lonely chameleon who is used to making up stories - playing out scenes with...

Gaga, Depp back Weinstein's Bully campaign

Mon, 27 Feb 2012 7:46a.m. Stars including Lady Gaga and Johnny Depp have thrown their support behind movie mogul Harvey Weinstein's campaign to have his movie Bully awarded a lower age rating. The Weinstein Company boss was left fuming this week after American censors gave the documentary film a restrictive R rating, meaning younger kids won't be able to see it without being accompanied by their parents. Weinstein was so angry, he threatened to withdraw his company from the Motion Picture Association of America over the ruling, and he has now revealed why he feels so passionate about the project. The movie mogul admits the film has become a personal crusade for him, as he has four daughters and he wants them to grow up without being threatened by bullies. Weinstein tells TV host Piers Morgan, "I cried at the end of the film, and I said this is a mission for me, and especially for somebody who's known 10 years ago to have a bad temper.

Kolchak: The Night Stalker is back with Johnny Depp

Along with the big screen version of the classic TV horror show Dark Shadows in May, Johnny Depp is also bringing back another classic TV horror, Kolchak: The Night Stalker. Both shows were created by Dan Curtis, who also gave us the Winds of War mini-series, and although Kolchak didnt last long, its still a great show that has stood the test of time. (I have the DVD box-set myself). At one point David Fincher was going to do a big screen Kolchak for DreamWorks, which would have been awesome for sure, but Edgar Wrights a good choice too. According to Deadline , Wright will be helming the big screen version of Kolchak, with Depp playing the reporter in the seersucker suit who keeps running into monsters on his beat. Wright of course gave us Shaun of the Dead, Hott Fuzz, and the under-rated Scott Pilrgim Vs. the World, not to mention he created the best fake trailer for the movie Grindhouse, Dont!, which for some reason isnt on either the Planet Terror or Death Proof DVDs.

But lo, what's that in the distance I hear? Buzz that consumer surveying of two potential trailers, a shorter teaser and longer full trailer, took place earlier this week. To be fair to all involved, by "buzz...
