FIRST LOOK: Banksy Releases 'Exit Through The Gift Shop' Footage

On April 16th, Exit Through The Gift Shop will start showing in New York, San Francisco and LA. But to keep you on your toes, Banksy has started to release a series of exclusive videos on the film's official Youtube channel. In an extended five minute teaser for the film released today, Banksy for the first time sets up the film's storyline.

Banksy says in the clip: "The film is the story of what happens when his guy tried to make a documentary about me but he was a lot more interesting than I am, so the film is now kinda about him." That guy is a French filmmaker named Terry Guetta.

Johnny Depp as Pancho Villa

According to Variety, we may hear Johnny Depp speaking in Spanish very soon. Depp is rumored to be in talks to play the iconic Pancho Villa in a movie titled "Seven Friends of Pancho Villa and the Woman With Six Fingers."

The Spanish-language biopic is to be shot partly in Mexico, where Villa -- an early 20th-century bandit who became a guerilla fighter and a hero to the poor -- is an iconic historical figure. Depp will act in Spanish, Kusturica said.

Rumor also has it that Salma Hayek is in "advanced talks" to star in the film.

Oh, did I mention that he'll be EVERYWHERE very soon? According to IMDB, Depp is said to have completed filming for the following:

1. Sin City 3 (2012) (in production) .... Wallace
2. Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (2011) (announced) .... Jack Sparrow
3. The Tourist (2011) (pre-production)
4. Rango (2011) (post-production) (voice) .... Rango
5. The Rum Diary (2010) (post-production) .... Paul Kemp
