Wow, that's Johny Depp... I didn't recognize him at first glance. At second glance too

Re: Black Mass

I couldn't even recognice Depp! I do hope Ben will have a bit more hair... and his own amazing features...

Other than that, I'm just excited for this!

Re: Black Mass

I'm glad he's working on something at last!
Do we know why Guy Pearce dropped out? Because he usually goes for fairly good Movies, whereas Johnny needs a really good film, imo - his last few haven't been great.
Exciting news though! I can totally see Ben and Depp as Brothers - it's the cheekbones;)
Looks like they might have to age him a bit though if there was only 5 years between them...wonder if it hops back and forth in time?

Re: Black Mass

So far I didn't find any information on why Guy Pearce dropped out.

Re: Black Mass

Lovely news! Ben's projects are piling up.  "(...)=14pxWhitey had become godfather of the Irish Mob." rather different from what Ben is used to, I love this!

Interesting how they're going to transform Ben into this

Actually, the hair... won't be such a huge problem.

Re: Black Mass

[shallow me]

Johnny looks... Well, let's say I hope Benedict won't look like that 

[/shallow me]

After I saw Johnny with Rebecca Hall in Transcendence, I was thinking how it would be if he and Benedict were in the same film. But I didn't think it'd really happen I'm exited!

Re: Black Mass

Actually Polar I can see a slight similarity between that picture and your gif! I hope they don't get him to put on weight though because then he'd go a strict diet afterwards again to be ready for Sherlock!

Solar - thanks; hopefully Guy just pulled out due to other commitments.

Re: Black Mass

Having read up a bit about Whitey, I'm now thinking that this might be quite a small part for Benedict.
Billy has quite an interesting background but if the Movie is about Whitey then I don't see that Billy will feature that much.
Certainly Benedict doesn't seem to be needed for the scenes being shot at the moment - it seems they're shooting with Johnny in Massachusetts 'til the end of the month.
(Oh, and I'm pretty sure Johnny has a bald cap on in those pics - so any baldness wouldn't be real!! He wouldn't have time to grow his Sherlock curls back in time for filming! Remember he wanted to shave his head to play James, but wasn't allowed?!)

Re: Black Mass

I think it is obvious that this is a filler project - BC expected to start filming LCoZ in summer and now that it has been delayed (again!) he probably decided it's about time to do some acting. So it is quite probable it will be a small part, although I don't mind, it's still better than reading about comic cons and charity dinners and then he had about 5 minutes of screentime in AOC and still managed to be memorable. If well written, this part could be turn into an interesting character, as well. P.S. They say GP dropped due to scheduling issues.

Re: Black Mass

miriel, I agree. From what I've read about it yesterday I was already expecting Benedict's part to be a supporting part. But you are right, he's doing some acting again and that's what we've all been waiting for for months now, right?

Re: Black Mass

Exactly, Solar. The acting counts. Also calms me down a little bit, that he still is in demand.

You make some really good points, Miriel.

Re: Black Mass

Small part or not - Ben is acting again and that´s what matters the most!

What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

Can I just say that he reminds a bit of Kyle Chandler?

Re: Black Mass

I think miriel is right. And I am glad he is finally going to work again. (But still - I hope for films in which I do not have to wait anxious for his 5 or 10 or 15 minutes screen-time.)

Apparently, Dakota Johnson is also in the film---now the wierd lunch date makes sense...

Re: Black Mass

I was actually expecting her to be cast in LCoZ, since it was blatantly obvious to me that what was going on there was some kind of casting meeting....sometimes it amazes me that people don't look past the rubbish that the gossip rags try to feed them!!!!

Re: Black Mass

I never thought of a professional link.
But I certainly knew it was no romantic liaison.
The clue in the rumour was ' not in the public eye', which kind of rules out any actress!
