A rep for Johnny Depp has confirmed that the actor will direct a documentary on Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards, Variety reports. News of Depp working on a doc about the guitar god first surfaced in an interview with Russias Politika, where Depp said his editor is in the process of going through miles of archival footage. Im very touched that Keith agreed to show up in front of my cameras, Depp said.
Depp has long credited Richards for inspiring his portrayal of Capt. Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of the Caribbean series, and Richards made a surprise cameo as Sparrows pirate father in At Worlds End. Richards and Depp appeared together on the cover of Rolling Stone before the films release, and the pair displayed an almost father-son relationship. I was almost afraid to meet him for a long time, because there is always a fear that your heroes are going to be shitheads, Depp joked to RS.
According to Variety, in addition to the documentary, Richards autobiography is due in fall 2010.
