Johnny Depp's dream role is to be a Python, says Terry Gilliam

London, February 22 (ANI): Johnny Depp would love to be a part of Monty Python, the hit British TV comedy sketch show, according to director Terry Gilliam.

The Monty Python creator revealed that Depp looked up to the six comedians in the group whose influence in comedy has often been compared to The Beatles' influence on music

"Johnny always wanted to be a Python, " the Daily Express quoted him as saying.

"He loves comedy and said 'If I could have been a Python I would've been happy,'" he added.

Speaking of his team work with the star, he continued: "He's so fast. I have an idea, he has a sillier idea. We leapfrog. I think that's the heart of it." (ANI)
