Will Depp Be 'Willy?'
Wednesday August 20, 2003
Johnny Depp's dance card is filling up. The actor's "Pirates of the Caribbean" is still kicking some serious butt at the box office, and "Once Upon a Time in Mexico" is set to open in a matter of weeks. Now 'Variety' is reporting that Depp's had meetings with his "Edward Scissorhands" and "Ed Wood" director Tim Burton, and is poised to sign on to the remake of "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory." Warner Bros. is hot to remake the classic tale, with "The Corpse Bride" screenwriter Pamela Pettler already working on a new "Willy" script.
