Hollywood icon Johnny Depp arrived in Turin Monday to film the Italy-set scenes of his second directorial effort, Modì, about the life of tormented early 20thcentury Paris-based Italian artist Amedeo Modigliani.
Italian star Riccardo Scamarcio plays Modigliani, while the film also features Al Pacino, Stephen Graham, Luisi Ranieri and SallyPhillips.
It is the second feature directed by the 60-year-old Depp after 1997's The Brave where he also acted alongside Marlon Brando.
That year Depp also starred alongside the now 83-year-old Pacino in cult Mob classic Donnie Brasco.
Depp may visit the National Film Museum in Turin and take in an exhibition on Tim Burton, the director who featured him in many films including Depp's first hit Edward Scissorhands.
