Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie have been voted the celebrities most people would like to cast in their own movie.

The Pirates Of The Caribbean star and the Tomb Raider siren topped a survey by the National Lottery to find the country's most desirable leading actors.

According to Contact Music, nine out of ten British film fans would like to make their own movie if they had the funding. A quarter of those polled would opt for a thriller, while one in five would attempt a romantic comedy.

The average person would want to invest £10 million, hire Steven Spielberg as the director and shoot on location in London.

Will Smith was the most coveted supporting actor, while Depp's Pirates co-star Keira Knightley was the favourite supporting actress.
