Undercover News is reporting that Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee says he would like for Johnny Depp to play him in the film based on their 2001 memoir, The Dirt. Lee stated, "Johnny Depp would be my choice to play me. He's the best ever."
The movie seemed to be falling into place, however, recently MTV, who was funding the project, pulled out. According to Motley Crue bassist Nikki Sixx, they are currently looking for the "right partner".
OMG! JOHNNY DEPP would be great...but isn't he a bit old to play him as a young rock star? I think it will be fun to see it made into a movie. Casting it will be interesting.
