Johnny Depp – ‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’
The coming-of-age masterpiece from John Hughes is one of those films that somehow never seems to get old, but the cute-as-a-button Matthew Broderick was almost never involved at all. Johnny Depp was initially offered the role. He couldn’t accept due to scheduling conflicts. We know now Depp’s ability to bring a quirkiness to his characters. Would that have helped or hurt the film? We’ll never know for sure. Chika-chik-a!
