Barry Manilow and Johnny Depp to duet?

The Hollywood star revealed he would jump at the chance to sing with the 64-year-old 'Mandy' singer.

Speaking about his lead role in musical 'Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street', he told Envelope magazine: "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 previously admitted he was unsure of his own singing talents before signing up for the film.

The 44-year-old star said: "I knew I wasn't tone deaf but I didn't know if I'd really be able to hold the notes or belt out a tune."

But Burton claims Depp "exceeded all expectations" with his vocal
performances.

He said: "I always had every confidence in him and he needn't have worried at all.

"His performance was wonderful and exceeded all of my expectations. He is a great actor."
