Depp, Bale and Mann Talk 'Public Enemies' In New Featurette

Forget June, bring on July...

BY: Brad Brevet | June 1st 2009 at 12:31 AM

A new featurette for Universal Pictures' Public Enemies has arrived online featuring footage from the film coupled with interview commentary with director Michael Mann and stars Johnny Depp and Christian Bale. The film is set to hit theaters on July 1 and is certain to be a summer must-see, but may in fact prove to be a film to watch out for come awards season.

Michael Mann (Heat, Collateral) penned the script based on Brian Burrough's nonfiction book "Public Enemies: America's Greatest Crime Wave and the Birth of the FBI, 1933-34" Public Enemies is set during the great crime wave of 1933-34, when the government’s attempts to stop Depression-era criminal legends such as John Dillilnger (Depp), Baby Face Nelson and Pretty Boy Floyd transformed J. Edgar Hoover’s FBI into the country’s first federal police force.

Check out the featurette below and for more on the film including additional video, pictures and cast information click here.

Well, if you're around Indiana you can see this one day earlier:

HOBART (IN) – Lake County officials are hoping special screenings of the movie ‘‘Public Enemies" starring Johnny Depp as gangster John Dillinger will help raise money to restore the Old Sheriff's House and Jail.

The screenings will be June 30 at Kerasotes ShowPlace 12 in Hobart before the movie opens nationwide July 1.

Tickets for the 6 p.m. showing are $50, and ticket holders will receive concessions at the theater as well as a pass to the John Dillinger Museum inside the Indiana Welcome Center in Hammond and a voucher to tour the Old Sheriff's House and former Lake County Jail in Crown Point, where some scenes were shot last March.

Tickets to the second showing are $125 per couple and $75 per individual and include an invitation to a VIP party.

It will certainly need good reviews since it's up against Ice Age 3 on it's openning weekend.

I was an extra at roscoe & clark near wrigley field in chicago. The scene included depp and channing tatum – a cigar shop with a betting parlor in the back room. This is going to be a blockbuster of a movie!!!!!
