Hey, everybody! Let's play Spot the Howling Literary Error:
No. Not Fitzgerald. Anyway, Depp is supposedly interested in the project, which would be too bad. He's a great actor, but if he gives us a Jack-Sparrow-type take on the character, with wide eyes and wink-wink overacting, it'll spoil the story. Walter Mitty was a henpecked milktoast. Then again, Danny Kaye played the role in the original movie, and he hammed the hell out of it. There was talk of Mike Meyers doing it, which raises fears - how will he work a Scottish accent into this one? - but he might have been a better fit.
