Two New Public Enemies Images

Source:  Empire
If you've ever wanted to see what Johnny Depp and Christian Bale in 1930s duds, well you're in luck. Empire has just released two new images of Depp as the notorious John Dillinger and Bale as FBI agent Melvin Purvis in Michael Mann's drama Public Enemies, which is set for release on July 1, 2009. Check out these two new images from the film below.

Public Enemies Image #1
Public Enemies Image #2

An adaptation of Brian Burrough's book "Public Enemies: America's Greatest Crime Wave and the Birth of the FBI, 1933-43," the film centers on the government's attempt to stop John Dillinger and his gang. Depp is playing Dillinger to Bale's famed FBI agent Melvin Purvis.

Wenham is playing Pete Pierpont, a member of Dillinger's crew who has a violent hostility to all authority. British actor Graham will portray Baby Face Nelson.

this movie is going to be awesome,depp and bale are the best.
This summer Bale was in Dark Knight,and next summer John Connor and FBI agent Melvin Purvis. I think that proves how great actor is Bale.

I agree, it is time Bale receives a nomination for an Oscar. Depp has been nominated three times and maybe he will get a fourth for this film.

I think Bale needs to get at least a nod for once,because his movies are gold!

josebond007 . From the moment i heard that Johnny will play a mobster in the 30's and the fact that that mobster is ''the jackrabbit'' who is famous to dances and make weird movements when he robs banks make me sure he will be nominated for Oscar.

Michael Mann is awesome, and the fact that this is based in the 30's - 40'3, is even better. The actors are just a super huge, awesome bonus.

VIS, haven't you ever seen any of Depp's movies like "The Ninth Gate," or "From Hell," where he plays a NORMAL character? Even in "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" he's a normal character.

Anyway, you're right VIS. I've no clue what to think. However, I'm sure that Depp'll salvage the movie for me. Can't wait to hear more about this one!!!!!

St. Bitches

what do you men with this ''based on characters he's played for the past few years'' ? Depp has never played mobster before?

November 26th, 2008 12:35pm
Man I hope this one is good. It's kind of a weird role for Depp to be in, based on characters he's played for the past few years. However He should do well. As for Christian Bale I think that man could do anything he wants!

Christian Bale and Johnny Deep are amazing actors.

What is Vamp gonna think of this. On one hand-Depp...on the other-Bale lmao I like Bale more than Depp, but this doesn't seem like Depp's usual "wacky, white, character" so if he manages to make something out of this, I just might be able to trust him as Tonto...guess we'll see
