Hottie Johnny Depp is taking another turn in the director’s chair, this time to direct a documentary about his Jack Sparrow doppelganger Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards. Richards played Depp’s father in the third installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, and Depp has mentioned several times that Richards was his inspiration for Jack Sparrow.

Looks like shooting for the doc could have already begun – Depp told the European media: “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.”

Depp previously directed a film in 1997 called The Brave, which played at the Cannes Film Festival.
