Even  though “no details are available yet on what character Depp might play in the film" I think it's great that Depp signed on

Michael Bacall ("Scott Pilgrim vs. the World") wrote the R-rated script in which Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum play a pair of undercover cops working in high schools and colleges. The tone has been described as “John Hughes meets ‘Bad Boys'".

Rob Riggle Brie Larson Dave Franco DeRay Davis Jake M. Johnson and Ice Cube playing the captain of the two cops also star.

Chris Miller and Phil Lord ("Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs") are directing.
