An Admirers' Site Dedicated to Johnny Depp and His Work
The news from the set is that they were filming a Beach scene at Indiana Dunes State Park last night. Also there is alot of talk going around about filming the dance scenes.. still you can read more about that on the Windyhop site. They talk more about the filming at the Aragon.
On extra tidbit to throw in,, it is rumored that Johnny played guitar some with the band between takes.

We received special permission from trashwire.com and Anne Rakowiecki to post her story of meeting with Johnny there are also photos. Read her encounter over here.
Lizzy finished one more part of her biography – go on reading it here.
We also updated the timeline and the awards.
Trashwire MySpace friend Anne Rakowiecki got to realize a dream when she met Johnny Depp on the Chicago set of his new film Public Enemies. Read her firsthand account and check out her pictures below.
If you would have told me years, months, or even days ago that I would someday be hugging Johnny Depp in a 7/11 parking lot across the street from Wrigley Field at five o?clock in the morning?I would have laughed in your face and asked you what drugs you had consumed that day.
But, on April 4, 2008, it happened.
The story is kind of funny, actually. It all started with 21 Jump Street. That?s not the funny part, though. The funny part is that it all ended with 21 Jump Street.
It was another typical Thursday night; hanging out with my friends Sara and Jessica, watching our favorite late 80?s cop drama. We were joking around about all the silly Jump Street questions we?d ask Johnny if we met him. It was always, ?When we meet Johnny Depp ? because it will happen – we?re going to ask him what his favorite episode is.? We thought this was so funny. Funny because we never, ever, in our wildest dreams, ever thought we would actually get to meet him.
Backtrack to when I first discovered that Johnny would be in Chicago filming a movie. March 12, I believe it was. Jessica told me this through instant message.
I added a Press Kit from the movie Sweeney Todd in the moviepic section
Thanks the wonderful Conny
Filming was last night and tonight at the Aragon. It is rumored from the set that the dance scene was filmed. (Johnny’s dancing?/) Also that Bale finished his scenes. They are supposed to be filming there one more day and then on to Milwaukee. But as the schedule changes so will the updates.
Awhile ago we told you about Johnny enjoying some down time to shop in Wisconsin. David has posted a great little blurb about Johnny on his blog and it is a wonderful read with an awesome photo of the two of them together. David is of course from Madison and Friends and The Denim Lounge on Oak Street. He gives a list of some of the items that Johnny purchased there and tells how he was so nice and took pictures with all of our employees and even signed the door on the way out!
Filming took place at The Portage Theatre in Chicago on Monday and Tuesday nights. Although Johnny was present it seems, He did not come out to meet the fans as he was filming and then went to his hotel. There still is some filming to do apparently at the Biograph but we don’t know when it will exactly be done.
Crews are transforming the street level entrance
of the Aragon in preparation for filming. The
transformation will take place through the end of
the week.
