Johnny Depp can add another great author to his acting resume.
Depp, who has portrayed authors and writers Hunter S. Thompson and J. M. Barre, is producing and starring in a new film of the life of children’s author Dr. Seuss.
The Cat in the Hat author, born Theodor Geisel, was an illustrator in the late 1920s who drew magazine ads for big corporations like General Electric and NBC. He started working on political cartoons shortly after and then began his foray into children’s books.
Seuss went on to write classics Green Eggs and Ham, One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish, How The Grinch Stole Christmas, Fox in Sox and Horton Hears A Who among so many popular works.
Geisel died in 1991 after succumbing to throat cancer.
Depp’s next film, The Rum Diaries, will release October 28th.
