Johnny Depp is considering a move to the U.K – he has reportedly been househunting in the English countryside.

The Pirates of the Caribbean star currently lives in France with his long-term girlfriend Vanessa Paradis and their two children.

But Depp is rumored to be looking to buy a country estate in Norfolk, England after he reportedly viewed an $11 million mansion just outside the East Anglian city of Norwich.

Last month the actor thrilled a group of local children by donating signed photographs to a neighborhood troop of Girl Scouts – fuelling speculation he is planning a move to the area.

The real estate agent handling the property has refused to confirm rumors that Depp has put in an offer, saying, “We can’t confirm who we’ve been talking to about the estate. There has been a lot of interest but we cannot disclose the names of any potential purchaser.”

Tommy Lee wants Johnny Depp to play him in a movie based on Motley Crue’s memoirs.

The drummer insists Depp is the perfect actor to portray him on the big screen – because he thinks he and the Pirates of The Caribbean star share many of the same character traits.

Lee says, “Johnny Depp would be my choice to play me. He’s the best (actor) ever. We’re working on the film, trying to find the right producers and director and all that sort of stuff.”

Johnny Depp has reportedly made filming new movie Public Enemies a bit more civilised for himself and co-star Marion Cotillard by having some of his homegrown wine flown over to the US from France.

A source told the Mirror: “Johnny’s a fine wine buff and has his own vineyard in the South of France. He’s had 10 crates of his own wine shipped over to keep him going.

“He is very serious about his hobby and does everything himself – from selecting the grapes to working the machinery. He’s done wine-tasting courses and has read virtually all there is to read on the subject. Johnny’s a connoisseur.”

He also shipped over his favourite Bordeaux wine to supplement his offerings around the set: “It’s fair to say that he’s made filming a far more enjoyable experience.”

Johnny Depp’s publicist has been forced to speak out to quash new reports alleging the actor and his longtime partner Vanessa Paradis have married.

The Pirates of the Caribbean star was rumored to be planning to wed Paradis at Sandra Bullock’s Georgia home earlier this month, but Depp’s representative shot down those claims, insisting they were false.

New rumors arose this week, alleging Depp and Paradis were to exchange nuptials in Kentucky.

But Depp’s spokesperson has again had to move fast to nix those reports, telling Usmagazine.com the claims are “not true”.

The representative adds: “There is no wedding.”
