AceShowbiz - Who could separate Johnny Depp from the hit '80s television series "21 Jump Street"? Though the actor has moved on to be one of the greatest Hollywood actors with three Academy Award-nominations and many blockbuster movies under his sleeves, nobody could forget him being the young Officer Tom Hanson Jr. in the drama series. Hence, it will only be fair if he gets a part in the upcoming "21 Jump Street" movie and apparently the film's screenwriter Jonah Hill agrees.
In an interview with MTV, the "Superbad" star revealed that he has already prepared a part for the original star of the undercover young cop drama series. "We have an awesome thing for [Johnny] Depp, if he'll do it," Hill explained enthusiastically. "I don't know if he will or not, [but] it's going to be rad!" Still, the 24-year-old didn't share further details about the role opened for the "Sweeney Todd" star. Meanwhile, Depp has yet to give any comment on the offered part.
Earlier, Hill has revealed that he has been touted to write the script for the movie adaptation of "21 Jump Street". He further hinted that the film about a gang of young cops who goes undercover in search of troubled kids in high schools and colleges won't be a dramatic movie, instead it will be a comedic one. The film is said to be scheduled for 2010 release.
