Johnny Depp might be ‘replacing’ Heath Ledger
The Sun is reporting that Heath Ledger will likely be replaced by Johnny Depp in Terry Gilliman’s “The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus.” But instead of re-shooting the scenes Ledger already filmed, they would literally be replacing him with Depp midway through the movie.
Here’s what a source close to the film had to say:
There is a point in the film when Heath falls through a magic mirror. He could change into another character after that and that is where Johnny would come in. … It?s a weird, fantasy, time-travel movie so Heath?s character could easily change appearance. It would be a poignant moment.
The re-casting hasn’t been officially confirmed, but because Depp isn’t working on anything right now, the crew are keeping their fingers crossed.
Weird… Would they share top billing?
