JOHNNY DEPP   (NJ.COM)

Based on the John Dillinger (Public Enemies) movie promotion, Johnny Depp may be the perfect actor to play Frank Sinatra in the bio-pic that Martin Scorsese is to produce and direct. One reviewer said; "Johnny Depp steals the show as Depression-era outlaw John Dillinger. Depp, all cheekbones and bedroom eyes, comes on to a woman with the line, “I like baseball, good clothes, fast cars, whiskey and you.” The woman is smart enough to know his proposition will inevitably lead to heartbreak and disappointment, but she falls for it anyway. Who wouldn’t?"  It even sounds like Frank.

 Depp has "attitude" that Leonardo DiCaprio, and some of the other actors mentioned as possible Sinatras don't have. His talent and persona could combine to boost the film to a higher level, similar to his contribution in the "Pirates of The Caribbean" films. What do you think?

Here's the trailer:
