One possibility is a project he was linked to back in 2012--the cinematic reboot of based upon the cult 1970's TV series titled "The Night Stalker" says Deadline.
The original series followed Carl Kolchak (Darren McGavin), a reporter who investigates mysterious crimes that have a supernatural or sci-fi element.
The show was rebooted a few years ago with Stuart Townsend as Kolchak but was cancelled after a few episodes. The original was a major influence on producer Chris Carter and inspired him to create "The X-Files".
The hiring of D.V. DeVincentis ("Grosse Pointe Blank," "High Fidelity") almost exactly two years ago was the last word we got about the project, other than talk since that the script is in good shape.
Johnny Depp and Christi Dembrowski will produce the pic with the notion of Depp playing Kolchak.
Depp's schedule would be a likely complicate things - he's currently filming the crime biopic "Black Mass" He is slated to shoot the sequel "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales" and Through the Looking Glass the upcoming sequel to Tim Burton's "Alice in Wonderland" over the second half of this year and well into 2015, and is in talks for the biopic "The Secret Life of Houdini"
