According to FemaleFirst, Depp revealed that he would accept without any hesitation if he had the opportunity to do a duet with Manilow.
Depp explained his experience as a singer for the musical Sweeney Todd. "I don’t think I would have attempted this kind of project with anyone but a director like Tim Burton. But if there’s a chance of doing a duet with Barry Manilow now, then I’m in!"
Depp has previously expressed uncertainty in regards to his talent as a singer. However, Tim Burton emphasized that the actor’s talent as a singer surpassed his expectations.
