Johnny Depp to participate in Satan in new Terry Gilliam movie opposite Jeff Bridges as God, but will it actually happen?

Terry Gilliam is settling up his subsequent job, and it sounds like a doozy. The Carnival at the Conclude of Days will be a comedy in which God decides to wipe out humanity, and the only a single who requires to support you save them is Satan, who will be performed by none other than Johnny Depp.

Gilliam very first pitched the tactic final year, but he dropped a tiny significantly far more information about the challenge while speaking with Première at the Annecy Global Animated Movie Festival final month. In addition to Johnny Depp as Satan, The Carnival at the Conclude of Days will also star Jeff Bridges as God with each other with Adam Driver and Jason Momoa.

“[Jeff Bridges] will not be the God we are accustomed to,” Gilliam explained. “In the movie, God is nature. But a nature that can talk about to you. I’m probably to need to have animation to provide him everyday life, for the explanation that in the scene with God, there are at least fifteen animals. And it is heading to be intricate, since it has to be realistic. And it is going to be actually very-priced. We’ll see what transpires. But it is a superior scenario. It’ll be really entertaining for individuals who like to be offended.“

The director more that he’s nonetheless striving to figure out when and the spot The Carnival at the Stop of Times will be filmed, but he expects to commence taking photos up coming January. The film will also include Satan seeking for a human handful of to current to God as the contemporary day-day Adam and Eve, so we should count on more casting news as the challenge moves forward.

Now for the big query: will The Carnival at the End of Times in fact happen? Gilliam does not normally have the ideal of luck finding his jobs off the floor in a timely style his preceding film, The Gentleman Who Killed Don Quixote, invested decades in development hell and even started capturing about 20 decades back till at some point a sequence of unfortunate events compelled him to cease. Here’s hoping he has higher luck with this venture.

With his legal battles at the rear of him, Depp has bit by bit been creating his comeback with Jeanne Du Barry and even stepping at the rear of the camera with Modi, his really very first directorial outing in more than twenty lots of years.
