Johnny Depp reportedly considering horror film role



The Ohio Film Office said it is offering a $3 million rebate incentive to producers of a new horror film which could be shot in the Hocking Hills. The movie would be based on the novel Crooked Tree which centers around attacks in northern Michigan as well as Native American folk lore. Johnny Depp is reported to be a fan of the book, which has a large following. Depp is reported to possibly be considering a starring role in the film.

"Johnny Depp at our cabins! What a thrill that would be!" said guest specialist Paula Enderle with Lazy Lane Cabins.

Lazy Lane is nestled in the Hocking Hills not far from Old Man's Cave. The facility has 40 cabins available to rent. Enderle hopes all would be rented out by actors, producers and film crews.

"We would be able to accommodate quite a few of them," Enderle said.

A few miles down the road at The Inn at Cedar Falls, guest specialist Misty Rigney said that local tourism officials brought one of the movie's producers through her inn to discuss the possibility of a cast party.

"It sounds pretty neat to me. It would bring a lot of potential guests to the area," Rigney said.

The Ohio Film Office (OFO) said that it would offer approximately $3 million in incentives to producers in order to bring the movie to the Hocking Hills. While the deal is not finalized yet, OFO said it is hopeful Ohio will be chosen.

If so, producers will cast 220 locals as extras for the movie which could be shot in Ohio next spring. No information has been posted yet for those auditions however the OFO said it will post notice on its website and recommends checking there in a couple of months.

Eek, I'm not on board with this idea. I'd like to see him do a project that demanded more emotional acting from him or something. It's been a few years since I've been wowed by him.

Did that fall through?
whiskybars 6th-Oct-2012 07:10 pm (UTC)
yes, wes said in an interview he's not in it. maybe he dropped out or something, idk but part of me hopes he's just trolling.

She has a Twitter account now, so we're probably going to see the same levels of Ireland Baldwin pedophelia. Honestly, I know it's not fair, but if I were a celebrity parent with a beautiful underage daughter, I would forbid Facebook and Twitter unless it was maximum privacy settings, and even then...
reidacted 6th-Oct-2012 08:25 pm (UTC)
How legit is that account? It seems a little odd that she'd take the time to tag all her pictures with a copyright mark. What 13 yr old is worried about that?
sarahvma 6th-Oct-2012 08:28 pm (UTC)
She posted one pic where someone was forming a Lily Rose fanclub and she told them to fuck off. That seems pretty 13 to me. Plus the pictures are all very personal.

One thing I do find odd, though, is that none of it's in French. You'd think that being raised mostly in France, it would be her default language.
reidacted 6th-Oct-2012 08:34 pm (UTC)
I wonder if maybe the person behind the account got the pictures from the private tumblr account false_hate mentioned. You really only find tagged photos like that from fake accounts.

You're right, the language is sketchy.

Also, I just read a tweet linking her 8 year old brother's twitter account to confirm it was him. I don't know how much I'm buying that.

sarahvma 6th-Oct-2012 08:38 pm (UTC)
Now I'm hoping it's fake, because whoever runs the Twitter also seems to run a Tumblr, which is full of pro-thinspo.

Ireland Baldwin pedophilia

This is an actual problem? JFC. Its tragic that a good looking young woman can't just live her teenage life without fear someone will turn her image into something sinister.

I'm guessing both parents will end up limiting their social networking if either child reaches a Paris Jackson level of twitter fame. And, I think I remember an ONTD user saying Lily Rose had a private tumblr, which was sadly becoming another source for tabloids to raid.
sarahvma 6th-Oct-2012 08:29 pm (UTC)
Yup. Ireland likes to post pics of herself in a bikini and small clothing (hey, she's a teenager -- nbd), but you have tons of disgusting old men who comment about how they'd love to tear her apart, etc.
reidacted 6th-Oct-2012 08:36 pm (UTC)
Legitimately sickened.
nicolesnitchie 7th-Oct-2012 12:01 am (UTC)
his daughter has a twitter lol what
reidacted 7th-Oct-2012 12:16 am (UTC)
More accurately, his daughter has what looks to be someone faking her on twitter.
sarahvma 6th-Oct-2012 08:29 pm (UTC)
Honestly, it depends on the weather. If it's 100 degrees out, and you're in that same heat, most clothes don't look obscene.
toilandblood 7th-Oct-2012 01:13 am (UTC)
i agree

At least that tank is not see through and hangy though, like some of her other stuff

She's gorgeous.

My 13 yr old self would never have believed that I would see Johnny Depp and just think ugh fuck off to the north pole and sit yr ass on an igloo you pretentious prick

Id never realized what a fucking hipster he was
sarahvma 6th-Oct-2012 08:21 pm (UTC)
He's worse than a hipster. He's that 40-year-old douchebag midlife crisis hipster who shows up to the house party and weirds everyone out.
cuteej4 6th-Oct-2012 07:37 pm (UTC)
Right.

Is HBC going to be a ghost?

MTE I don't like all the hate he's been getting lately!
hardcoreninja11 6th-Oct-2012 09:06 pm (UTC)
I can't believe these words are about to come out of my mouth because I was once such a hardcore Depp stan... but I'm sick of him these days and his lame movie choices.
lordoftheabyss 6th-Oct-2012 09:08 pm (UTC)
ugh. i wish rick snyder hadn't gotten rid of the unlimited tax credits for films and destroyed the michigan film industry. it was really exciting there for a few years, seeing all the movies being made here. this movie probably would have been.

If Rick Dick Snyder wasn't MI's Governor, it probably would be shot in MI!
