Johnny Depp will return to the director’s chair for the first time in 25 years next year. The legendary actor will direct a biopic on Italian painter Amedeo Modigliani, simply titled Modigliani. It is reported that Johnny will also produce the film along with veteran actor Al Pacino. However, the cast has not yet been revealed and it is not certain whether Johnny will play himself or not.
Amadeo Modigliani was an Italian painter who found fame largely posthumously. His style was not well received during his lifetime and he was considered a critical and commercial failure. After his death in 1920 did his works gain much attention throughout Europe.
