You Can Bet on That: Johhny Depp
In another one of our “you can bet on that” moments its time to look at the
pending casting for the lead role in a film adaptation of the television show
Doctor Who. The online casino bookies in the UK have released odds for which
actors are most likely to take home this fantastic and coveted role and Johnny
Depp is the favorite at the gaming sites right now. The movie is already gaining
a lot of excitement because Doctor Who was a favorite show for the British and
ran for years. As a favorite show for the Brits they are heading to the online
casinos and betting shops to wager on not just who will be offered the role, but
which actor is actually going to play Doctor Who.
The online casino bookies feel that Depp is a shoe-in for the role and that he
will most certainly be the first actor asked to placy the quirky Doctor
character. The other side of the odds though look at whether Depp will actually
take the role this time around after finishing a whole slew of quirky characters
right in line with this one. So although Depp is the favorite for the role, some
speculate that he may refuse and in that case the online casino bookies are
looking at Matt Smith as the second most likely candidate to play the character
on screen. Smith is not well known to US audiences but is actually the current
actor playing the character on the television show.
Also in the running is one of the previous actors that played Doctor Who years
ago, as well as a handful of other names, including Hugh Laurie, Philip Seymour
Hoffman. The online casino bookies are unsure on this one but there is no doubt
that the actor taking the role will have to embrace the slightly mad and offbeat
character if they’re hoping to snag the role. |
