I just read an article that said Johnny is defending Roman Polanski. My love factor for Johnny just went down a notch.

Did he really ? If so,my sympathy factor for Johnny will take the same way,CindyC.

It seems to me, there are no these pictures yet - Keith, Johnny Depp, Patty Smith and others before the filming of this movie. Here`s the link to russian fan-site of Johnny Depp, but there are only photos - without any info.

Wow -- these are pix of some of the very coolest human beings on the planet at this time. Wow!

Keith looks FANTASTIC -- see what laying off the sauce can do!

There are some more pix over on Shidoobee - Keith's wearing one of Ronnie's T-shirts. That's a nice move on his part.

thanks for the heads-up, Beast! and for posting the photos, CharlieMoon.

a few of the shots seems to be reversed (including the one swiss has reposted here) -
Keith wears his skull ring on his right hand. but yeah he is lookin real good (and i trust he's feelin real well too!)

Great pictures.......by the way, don't think that picture is reversed with sssoul, maybe he just switched the ring to his other hand?

Excellent news.

...You're right; it isn't... The MasterCard logo in the window is correct (red ball on the left, gold ball on the right). He does switch his ring from hand to hand sometime, apparantly!

Hadn't noticed before either that Johnny Depp also wears a skull ring. I think Keith's coat looks like the one he wore at one of the Beacon nights.

Oh man, that´s a belly.

He was wearing one of Ronnie´s shirts:

If he has quit drinking and doing coke, then some weight gain isn't all that uncommon. Other than that he's looking good.

many times he wears them on both hands!

Great pictures, and with Ronnie`s shirt!..Seems that one has no description ("like painting", "like playing" etc))

>> He does switch his ring from hand to hand sometime, apparantly! <<

yep, sure enough - glad i said "seems to be"!
the earring seems to stay in his left ear in all the shots, so
i sit corrected ~ have some popcorn

Some photos from making Keith Richards documentary in LA - text in Finnish:

From Screencave.com. Perhaps timed for release at the same time as the autobiog?

Johnny Depp has decided to step behind the camera and direct a biopic on The Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards. If you thought their collaboration in Pirates of the Caribbeans was epic, wait until you hear the details about this. According to The Playlist, the versatile actor who can play anything from a pirate to Willy Wonka, told a Serbian website that he will be working with the musical legend on an upcoming documentary.

This isn’t Depp’s first time in the director’s chair, in fact he has two other projects under his belt including The Brave, which came out 13 years ago. He admits that he’s a lot older and wiser today, and his directing skills will show that. The Oscar nominated actor and the legendary rock star have had a close friendship for years, and Depp even modeled his character Jack Sparrow after Richards.

Now that Depp is stepping behind the camera again, he’s ready to start sooner than later.

“Already next week I’ll start working on a Keith Richards documentary. While I’m in Drvengrad, my editor is already working on kilometers of archive footage and footage of his concerts. I’m very touched that Keith agreed to show up in front of my cameras.”

“Already next week I’ll start working on a Keith Richards documentary. While I’m in Drvengrad, my editor is already working on kilometers of archive footage and footage of his concerts. I’m very touched that Keith agreed to show up in front of my cameras.”

Ha, ha! Nice going Screencave.com - that's MY translation from this very site! ( [www.iorr.org] ) I'll take it as a compliment, of course - I'm always worried about my grammar mistakes and translating skills. I believe Novica's translation from this thread, of "kilometers of archive material, live footage" was much better choice than mine, though.

I love the pic of Keith carrying his guitar in it's case. Hopefully, that won't be his natural progression on stage, from singing with his guitar at his side, to the bum notes, to not even opening the damn case up, and appearing onstage with a guitar still in the case. LOL!

Far from it, he looks 80 years old, bulging waistline, totally gray, very wrinkled.

But at least he is on the move. I have my doubts about him participating in a grueling world tour anytime soon.

For a while I was thinking what is so strange in that photo... the belly?... oh no... that's the the guitar case! When was the last time of a photo of Keith carrying his own guitar case? So romantic. It needs to set up for the documentary...

That is very good observation, overlooking everything else. A good magazine cover.

Concerning the guitar case, it appears to be somewhat aged. Can any Ioorian guitarist/musician identify type and era case originates?

Looks like an acoustic. Could be anything, really.

From PerezHilton.com

He really does have a thing for Keith Richards, doesn't he?

Johnny Depp is planning to direct a new documentary about the Rolling Stones star, his first project behind the camera in over ten years!!

The two are reportedly friends, and Depp famously claimed the rock legend's boozy, incoherent bahavior was his inspiration for Cap'n Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of the Caribbean films - enough to warrant Richards to appear in Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End as Sparrow's dad!!

Eh. Might be interesting, so we'll probs check it out.

Besides the fact that Keith Richards is an amazing hot mess, we're curious to see if Johnny boy is as good behind the camera as he is in front of it.

This sounds so much better than the Kusturica rumour. He did made a shity docu about Maradona....Just horrible.

If that's true then it's cool. Can't wait.

Interresting that it toop Perez Hilton so long to find out... Here on the site of the European Rolling Stones Fan Club, iorr.org, this has been presented as news in several threads...
Interresting that you read Hilton's blog more often than you're on iorr.org, too.

I agree. The documentary about Diego was not so interesting.

My guess is he's schlepping his beloved Gibson ES-355 around in that case.
