Public Enemies starring Johnny Depp

Photo source: People

The ultimate Captain Jack Sparrow in the 'Pirates of Caribbean' will now star as John Dillinger on the much awaited 'Public Enemies' to be released soon in Cinemas. This sexy 43-year old hunk-dad is none other than Johnny Depp (who is also by the way, one of my favorite Hollywood actors). ‘Public Enemies’ is a film that focuses on the attempt of the government to bring to an end the crimes that was made by some of the most famous criminals of the Depression era. Johnny Depp plays the major role in the film simply being the No. 1 Dillinger while also featuring other real-life characters like Pretty Boy Floyd and Baby Face Nelson, as well as the FBI head J. Edgar Hoover. You may also see other news about the film with these sources I’ve found: Mindsay and Zap2it
