Ian McKellen just shared some surprisingly glowing comments about working with Johnny Depp on the upcoming film Ebenezer: A Christmas Carol, a development that’s certainly giving many of us pause. It’s a bit of a head-scratcher, especially considering Depp’s recent history, and it feels like a disappointing moment for a seasoned actor like McKellen.
According to BuzzFeed, this new adaptation of the Charles Dickens classic sees Depp stepping into the iconic role of Ebenezer Scrooge, with McKellen playing a ghost alongside him. McKellen didn’t hold back when speaking about Depp’s performance and presence on set.
