Johnny Depp films cameo for Ricky Gervais’s BBC series, “Life’s Too Short”–new photo!

Johnny Depp took advantage of days off in his Dark Shadows shooting schedule to film a cameo appearance on Ricky Gervais’s new BBC comedy series, “Life’s Too Short.” Gervais wrote on his blog, “I should maybe tell you all about filming with Johnny Depp soon. The truth is I don’t know where to start. It was [expletive deleted] amazing basically.” Mr. Gervais was kind enough to share a photo of himself and Johnny, and they are both looking happy and relaxed; you can see a larger version of the photo HERE. “Life’s Too Short” will begin its run on the BBC this fall; Deadline.com reports that the series has been picked up by HBO to air in the U.S. in 2012.
