A Disney casting notice confirms that Johnny Depp has officially signed on to play the lascivious Wolf in Rob Marshall’s upcoming film of Stephen Sondheim’s award-winning fairy-tale themed musical – “Into the Woods”. Meryl Streep will play the self-serving — if not quite wicked — Witch. British actor James Corden will play the Baker. The plum role of the Baker’s Wife is yet to be cast. Rob Marshall will begin filming the adaptation in London in September.
