Did 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. Tazber's: Reply to Is Stephen Schwartz a Practicing Christian

I would pay lots of money to see that.

That 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.

I 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.

Carol Channing is bit of a cartoon.

It also sounds a like a bit of a gimmicky way to win an oscar too.

It 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.

Maybe Tyne Daly can play Charles Lowe.

Carol 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!

I find that this is repulsive. Utterly repulsive.

Read the previous post, Roxy. You're still able to do things like that, aren't you?

I think Johnny was joking. I hope it doesn't hurt Carol's feelings though.

I 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.
