From [livejournal.com profile] depp_fans, via [livejournal.com profile] sherrymarie:
"Johnny Depp is rumored to have an on-screen same-sex kiss in his upcoming film The Libertine, according to MSNBC.com's Jeannette Walls. Libertine stars Depp as 17th-century poet John Wilmot, the earl of Rochester, whom literary historians believe to have been bisexual. A source tells Walls that the object of Depp's osculatory affections "is Rupert Friend, and he's a fairly unknown actor--but very handsome. The lucky guy." No release date has yet been set for The Libertine."

Also Ain't-It-Cool News is reporting the same info with a quote saying in one scene, Depp's character walks into the House of Lords and spies an adversary. The Lord shouts 'Coward!' really loudly at Wilmot, to which Wilmot (Depp) paused, turned to the Lord, move up extremely close to him, then said, "My Lord, you cut me down I must confess, but in your mouth, my balls must rest," all the while running one of his two canes up the inside of his adversary's thigh.
DUDE.

My love for this man knows no bounds.

NO. FUCKING. BOUNDS.

Johnny = the new slash ficcer.

I bet he read loads of Sparrington and ENJOYED it. I SO see him pushing the Sparrington further. That would be just SO hot.

Gosh, I don't know what's better, that they're making a movie about the Earl of Rochester or that Johnny Depp will be playing him....hmmmmm. It's all good. Thanks for the heads up!
