Johnny's Next Sleeper?
By Rebecca Winters
Enough with swashbuckling. In Secret Window, due in April, Pirate of the Caribbean JOHNNY DEPP returns to what he does best--a good mope. Depp plays a depressed writer suffering through a divorce and accused of plagiarism by a creepy farmer (John Turturro). "One of the keys to [Depp's] character is his degree of bed head," says David Koepp, writer and director of the Stephen King adaptation. It's nice to see a guy get back to his (unbleached) roots.
