Johnny & Kate are partners again
Johnny Depp has asked former lover Kate Moss to star alongside him in an upcoming Michael Hutchence biopic. Depp, who will play the late INXS frontman, split up with the supermodel in 1997 after a stormy three-year romance.But he is happy for Moss to get close again, and play Hutchence’s girlfriend Paula Yates in the rock movie.
An insider said: “Johnny was asked if it would be a deal breaker for him if Kate was cast.”
“He said ‘Not as far as I’m concerned.’ He figures there’s been enough water under that bridge.
“Obviously director Nick Egan hoping there’s still enough chemistry between them that will translate to the screen.
“It has been claimed she never got over him and in the film they’ll have to appear deeply in love.”
Depp passionately defended Moss through her recent drug scandal and break-up with Babyshambles singer Pete Doherty.The actor, who also admitted he still has feelings for the model, defended her by slamming fashion bosses who dropped her after cocaine scandal. She’s not running for office and she ain’t looking to be the next Messiah,” he said at the time.
“She’s a great girl and I care about her a great deal.”
Hutchence was found dead in a Double Bay hotel room in 1997.
