Johnny Depp to Reprise '21 Jump Street' Role?

February 14, 2011 Candid Confessions

"Extra" host Mario Lopez sat down with Johnny Depp to talk about his new animated movie "Rango" -- and about the possibility of him making a cameo appearance as his former TV alter ego, Tom Hanson, in the new "21 Jump Street" movie.

"I would do it in a second," Depp admitted. "I would be happy to do it. I'm sure there's some kind of fun to be had. Just waiting to be asked!"

In the meantime, Depp is playing a chameleon in the upcoming "Rango," and confessed that at one point, he thought he knew how to train lizards. "Well, that's the thing. I don't know, but I thought I knew, as a child."

The actor had some advice for Mario about his baby daughter, Gia. "First thing you have to know is, sure, officially they become a teenager at 13, but they're actually teenagers at 10 and a half, 11," explained Depp. "Crushes on boys and the whole thing -- and you'll be, like, taking her to Justin Bieber concerts, yeah."

As for the constant rumors out there on Depp, the actor says you have to take them as they come. "Apparently, I'm buying a palazzo in Venice that I've never seen," laughed the star. "Yeah, there's no truth to that."
