Johnny Depp to appear in Gervais sitcom
...proving he can take a joke
Johnny Depp is to make a guest appearance in Ricky Gervais's new sitcom, Life's Too Short.
The Hollywood star agreed to be in the BBC Two show, despite being the butt of one of Gervais’s jokes at the Golden Globes in January.
At the ceremony, the comic said of Depp’s film The Tourist: ‘It was a big year for 3D movies. Toy Story, Despicable Me, Tron... seems like everything was three-dimensional – except the characters in The Tourist.’
Life’s Too Short, which Gervais has written with Stephen Merchant, stars Warwick Davis as the head of a talent agency for little people such as himself. Filming starts in May
