Johnny Depp and Amber Heard? More Former Co-stars He Might Date

Alas, the longtime romance of Johnny Depp and French siren Vanessa Paradis has come to an end. Having quietly separated from his children's some months ago, he is now said to be dating his "The Rum Diary" co-star, Amber Heard. He and Amber may have shared decent chemistry on screen. But there are perhaps other screen mates that he'd also be suited to date. Let the imagination run wild

As Depp's on-screen wife Amy, Maria Bello failed miserably. But in real life, this pairing could have a chance. She's just a few years younger than the "Donnie Brasco" actor. And like him, Bello appears to retreat from the typical Hollywood shenanigans. They both also seem to be fans of President Obama. Bello once admitted, "Obama gave her chills." And once, for a Halloween party, Depp donned his "Alice in Wonderland" garb to dazzle the President's guests. Both stars have been involved in 2010 Haiti earthquake relief. These two just might have loads to talk about.

In 1999, Christina Ricci played Katrina Van Tassel---love interest to the very skittish Ichabod Crane (Depp). Like Depp, Ricci has an affinity for playing peculiar characters --- roles that she slides into with ease. Also like the "Sleepy Hollow" star, she's had some body art altered (perhaps to eschew negative vibes): He changed his "Winona Forever" tattoo on his right bicep to "Wino Forever." She changed the bat on her right wrist into a fairy. It's unclear what other ties these two might have, if any. But the pairing would be interesting at best.

Radha Mitchell was featured in "Finding Neverland" with Johnny. And although Kate Winslet might seem the more obvious choice for him, it's perhaps for this very reason that Radha migh! t make a good love interest for him. (Suffice it to say, if Depp dated Kate Winslet, the media would never leave them alone.) The Australian actress has a penchant for indie films ("High Art") and seems particularly immune to the industry's jaded tendencies.

Juliette Lewis

is his "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" co-star. She's closer in age than Heard to Depp, and like him is also musically inclined. She has formed two of her own bands. Johnny plays the guitar and has been in a few garage bands in his lifetime. Even if things didn't work out romantically, it might be interesting to see what kind of musical collaboration they'd come up with. Juliette divorced ex, Steve Barra-a professional skateboarder in 2003.
