<p>One of Johnny Depp&#8217;s next movie roles may have been revealed. According to <a rel="nofollow" href="http://ift.tt/2ctgpbE">The Hollywood Reporter</a>, Depp will star in the upcoming movie <em>Labyrinth </em>as the real-life Los Angeles police detective, Russell Poole, who investigated the murders of Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac Shakur in the &#8217;90s.</p>
<p><i>Labyrinth </i>is being directed by Brad Furman (<em>The Lincoln Lawyer</em>, <em>The Infiltrator</em>) but doesn&#8217;t have a release date yet. This movie is based on the book <em>Labyrinth: A Detective Investigates the Murders of Tupac Shakur and Notorious B.I.G, the Implication of Death Row Records&#8217; Suge Knight, and the Origins of the Los Angeles Police Scandal</em>. It is probably for the best that the movie&#8217;s title isn&#8217;t that long.</p>

<p>It was Poole&#8217;s belief that a group of corrupt police officers, in association with Death Row Records, had something to do with the death of Notorious B.I.G., whose real name was Christopher Wallace. Poole had run-ins with the LAPD police chief then ultimately retired early in the wake of the fallout.</p>
<p>Depp&#8217;s latest movie role was for this year&#8217;s <em>Alice Through the Looking Glass</em>. He also played Donald Trump in Funny or Die&#8217;s TV movie <em>Donald Trump&#8217;s The Art of the Deal</em>. In 2015, Depp portrayed the real-life Boston mobster Whitey Bulger in the crime drama <em>Black Mass</em>.</p>
<p>Looking ahead, Depp is set to reprise his role as Captain Jack Sparrow in 2017&#8217;s <em>Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales</em>, while he&#8217;s also been <a href="http://ift.tt/20VuhOR">eyed for the lead role in the remake of <em>The Invisible Man</em></a>.</p>
