Hollywood actor Johnny Depp will return behind the camera after 25 years, with Al Pacino acting as producer, for 'Modigliani', a biographical drama about Italian artist and sculptor Amedeo Modigliani, who lived between 1884 and 1920, reports Zeenews.
Actor is all set to direct a movie 25 years after he made his first, a neo-Western in which he co-starred with Marlon Brando. Depp's directorial debut film, 'The Brave' (1997), was panned by critics and it also tanked commercially.
'Modigliani', based on American playwright Dennis 'National Anthems' McIntyre's play of the same name, takes place in 1916 Paris. McIntyre, who died at the age of 47 in 1990, was famous in his lifetime for highlighting the ills of American society in his plays.
