Johnny Depp is reportedly in Kevin Smith's walrus-man movie
Seeking a project where his performance will seem naturalistic and restrained by default, Johnny Depp has reportedly joined the cast of Kevin Smith’s Tusk, the movie where Justin Long is surgically transformed into a walrus. (Gypsies tramps and thieves, we heard it from the walrus of the town—Tusk!) As previously reported, Smith scripted the film based on a bizarre want ad he and SModcast co-host Scott Mosier read, as well as on his being high, with Long playing a journalist who becomes entangled in the life of an adventurer portrayed by Micahel Parks, then shortly becomes en-walrused.
