Posted: 7/16/09 at 10:59amDid not Depp alreadly play Carol in Willy Wonka?
Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist.
Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino.
This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more.

Posted: 7/16/09 at 11:58amThat is downright hilarious (and one of the many reasons why I worship and adore that man.)

I actually disagree with all of you...I think it's a slap in the face to Channing!
She's not a joke at all and this would be nothing but a joke.

Posted: 7/16/09 at 12:19pmI don't know Carol Channing, but I suspect she would find this charming. Johnny Depp does some broad charicatures (Ed Wood, Fear and Loathing, Pirates) but it always seems to come from an honest place. I doubt he would portray her in a cartoonish manner.

Posted: 7/16/09 at 12:21pmCarol Channing is bit of a cartoon.

Posted: 7/16/09 at 2:41pmIt also sounds a like a bit of a gimmicky way to win an oscar too.

Posted: 7/16/09 at 3:02pmIt could be great. Like when Cate Blanchett was the most convincing Bob Dylan of like 6 in that movie that was sort of about Dylan, but not really, a few years ago.

Posted: 7/16/09 at 3:23pmCarol Channing is a bit of a caricature, which I think she's pretty much aware of, and I bet would get a kick out of Depp playing her! She's a good sport and a legend!

Posted: 7/16/09 at 6:33pmI think Johnny was joking. I hope it doesn't hurt Carol's feelings though.

Posted: 7/16/09 at 6:54pmI had always heard that Ms. Channing was very fond of her send-ups in Forbidden Broadway. I would imagine she would take Depp's wish to play her as a compliment.

He already played Carol - as Willie Wonka.
Actually, many critics said it was a mix of Carol Channing and Michael Jackson.
