We are not anti-Johnny Depp. We love films like Edward Scissorhands, Ed Wood, Donnie Brasco, and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas—all of which are highlighted by stellar Depp performances. But for a Hollywood A-lister, he’s made some undeniably bizarre career decisions, and here are his oddest.
Cool Girl Anna Kendrick is now adding the title of ‘published author’ to her résumé. The Pitch Perfect 2 actress has just signed a deal to write a collection of humorous personal essays for Touchstone. Kendrick is known for her clever tweets and scene-stealing wit so a book of LOLs sounds like a pretty good move.
Before Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt star Tituss Burgess was singing "Pinot Noir," he starred as the Witch from Stephen Sondheim's Into the Woods. Burgess reprised his role (briefly) for Sondheim's birthday celebration. Just try and watch this clip without weeping.
Into the Woods had a powerhouse cast and a gorgeous sound. But there's still something missing in this musical: the death of a certain character. And it nearly kills the movie. Spoilers ahead.
Anna Kendrick visited the Daily Show last night, A-game in tow, to promote Into The Woods. We learn that vocal warmups are just embarrassing noises that everyone takes out of context ("like I'm really bad at being exasperated, like I'm new to passive aggression"), that corsets are akin to "being temporarily…
For months, musical theater dorks have been eagerly awaiting the release of Disney's Into the Woods soundtrack. Thanks to rumors about cut songs and lyric changes, along with some highly questionable casting choices (hello, little Depp), the outlook hasn't been good. Now, the full album has arrived and there's no…
FINALLY, the first full-length song from Disney's Into the Woods is here.
Anna Kendrick is playing Cinderella in the film adaptation of Into the Woods, which merges the storylines of Cinderella, Rapunzel, Little Red Riding Hood and Jack and the Beanstalk.

"All will come to a happy end," says Emily Blunt as the Baker's Wife in the latest Into the Woods trailer. I wouldn't count on it, girlfriend.
Into the Woods is probably one of the most eagerly anticipated films of this year, thanks to die-hard theater geeks and people who love Meryl Streep in pretty much anything. Unfortunately, so far the more we see of this film, the more worried we are that it might be a giant, sad mess.
Abandon all hope, all ye who enter here. This is the first look at Disney's Into the Woods Big Bad Wolf, and that is definitely Johnny Depp in a zoot suit with wolf ears. YIKES. Everyone else looks great, though.
If you happen to be keeping up with What Madeleine Is Mad About Right Now (I have a monthly newsletter!), you probably know that I am not happy about Disney's Into the Woods. Today, they released the first teaser trailer and I am feeling many things.
If you've ever seen a production of Into the Woods, the 1986 Stephen Sondheim musical that brings — or violently smashes —together the fairy tale classics, then you probably came away with the understanding that "happily ever after" isn't all it's cracked up to be. Get what you've spent your whole life wishing for and…
Joining a club of social climbers so elite that it only includes Jays Gatsby and Z, Sophia Grace Brownlee — of YouTube, Ellen and Miss Minchin's Seminary for Girls — has officially made the jump from adorable, viral rapping gimmick to star of the silver screen. The 10-year-old Essex native has been cast as Little Red…
So, Rob Marshall (the guy who gave us the Chicago movie and the fourth Pirates of the Caribbean) is adapting the creepfest Broadway musical Into the Woods for the screen. Excited? Scared? Completely unmoved? Odds are, this movie will be a pretty big deal, if for no other reason than that every actor ever is in…
They're making a film adaptation of Into the Woods! Did you know that? Did I know that? This is the type of news item that I go out of my way to stay on top of. How could I not have known?
David Letterman came back from vacation last night and didn't let his own recent sex scandal hold him back from basically devoting his show to Tiger Woods's cheating "firestorm." The man is clearly enjoying this.

In a statement released on his website, Tiger Woods claims his accident was his fault, noting "the only person responsible for the accident is me. My wife, Elin, acted courageously when she saw I was hurt and in trouble."
