Depp Interviewed for Petty Biopic

All Headline News reports Johnny Depp provides a featured interview in a biopic about legendary rocker Tom Petty which will premiere at the New York Film Festival next month.

The widely anticipated retrospective of one of America's all-time finest singer/songwriters will chart the progress of Petty and his band, the Heartbreakers, all the way from a Gainesville college-town bar-band to their current role as the foremost purveyors of anthemic Americana.
Runnin' Down a Dream, directed by Peter Bogdanovich, will be screened at the close of the New York Film Festival October 14th and then open in select cities the following day. It is said to include "archival material, 8mm footage, live and rehearsal clips, along with lengthy interviews from the likes of Stevie Nicks, Eddie Vedder, George Harrison, Jackson Browne, and Johnny Depp."

Johnny has long been associated with Tom Petty, having starred in the Heartbreakers' music video for "Into the Great Wide Open" in 1991.

No, I don't think he'll be there. He just provided an interview in the movie.
