On the one hand, the overall description of Richard Says Goodbye and its titular character sounds like Depp will spend a bit less time chewing scenery than he has in his last few films.
This sounds like a bit of a mixture between old and new for Johnny Depp.
The recent years of his career have often been defined by incredibly colorful characters and complex makeup, but Richard Says Goodbye generally sounds like it will be a bit more grounded in nature.
That said, it will still feel a bit familiar for Depp, as Richard’s newfound sense of adventure and hedonism still falls in line with the types of personalities that we have seen from Depp performances like Jack Sparrow, The Mad Hatter and Willy Wonka.
