Yes, Vanessa Paradis and Johnny Depp are going to star together. But they’re not going to be fluffy singers or anything like that. They’re going to be intellectuals. That’s right – no less than Simone De Beauvoir and her lover Nelson Algren in ‘My American Lover’, a film in development by director Lasse Hallstrom.
Although the couple haven’t worked together ‘officically’, they were cast in Terry Gilliam‘s ultra-doomed Don Quixote years ago.
Don’t faint just yet. The script’s still being written. And if it takes as long as the mooted Dr Who feature film, we could be waiting a long long time.
