Stones guitarist Richards joining Depp on Pirates set

Jul 6, 2005, 3:25 GMT

Los Angeles - Johnny Depp has persuaded Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards to play a cameo role in the sequels to "Pirates of the Caribbean", even though filming will clash with the Stones' U.S. tour.

According to reports, Depp personally convinced Richards to take the role of his father in the sequels, which are being shot back to back by director Gore Verbinski. He also arranged for special filming sessions beginning in February to work around the tour dates.

"It looks like it's going to happen," Depp told reporters at a news conference in Nassau, Bahamas, where the films are shooting. "But I don't know when. It's all going to depend on where we are and where he is, because he's got a little thing called the Rolling Stones tour to do."
