Johnny Depp morphs into Donald Trump in comedy video
HIS film career has been a little iffy recently, but Johnny Depp put in a killer performance as Donald Trump in a new video — comb-over and all.
JOHNNY Depp had one heck of an extreme makeover to play presidential hopeful, and human hairpiece, Donald Trump.
Donning an orange toupee and thick makeup to play a younger Trump, the star is unrecognisable in the new 50-minute Funny or Die sketch, Donald Trump’s the Art of the Deal: The Movie.
Filmed like a 1980s movie version of the Republican presidential hopeful’s best-selling book, The Art of the Deal, Depp totally nails the billionaire mogul.
While he uses some of Trump’s signature phrases, including “it’s gonna be huuuge,” and calls his enemies “losers” and “fat slobs,” Depp also improvises some humorous moments.
In one scene, he looks at himself in a bathroom mirror, reflecting on how much he wanted the Taj Mahal casino.
“That was very emotional. I was very vulnerable. I think that was an Oscar moment,” he says.
In real life, Trump, 69, is still a frontrunner for the Republican nomination.
