What’s happening with Shantaram
It seems that Johnny Depp is not happy with the script causing further delays to the beginning of shooting of Shantaram.
From Variety: “Depp became available after Warner Bros. postponed “Shantaram” due to concerns about script, costs and the prospect of shooting in India with monsoon season approaching.”
From Hindustan Times: Johnny Depp found certain similarities between Shantaram and Captain Jack Sparrow, his character in The Pirates of the Caribbean series. He pointed this out to Mira and suggested she revert to him after reworking the script,” the source adds.
Similarities with Captain Jack Sparrow? What is he talking about? I really wonder if Johnny Depp is the best choice to play the leading role. Russell Crowe might not be the better actor, but I believe he would have understood the role better.
