Kate Winslet is in talks to star opposite Johnny Depp


Kate Winslet is in talks to star opposite Johnny Depp in a Neverland, a film about JM Barrie, the author of Peter Pan. Based on Allan Knee's play, The Man Who Was Peter Pan, the movie will explore the author's relationship with four fatherless boys. Depp, of course, is famed for oddball roles and Winslet has some experience of weird fantasy film – she made her name in another flick about teenagers who refuse to grow up, Beautiful Creatures. Promises to be a lot more interesting than the normal Disney-fied Peter Pan tosh.
