Johnny Depp has reportedly been asked to narrate an upcoming documentary about The Doors.

According to Screen Daily, the actor will voice Tom DiCillo's feature film When You're Strange, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival last month.

DiCillo originally provided the narration himself, but it is reported that Depp will begin work on an updated version in the next few weeks.

"Johnny saw the film early on," said producer Peter Jankowski. "We showed him an early cut and he responded very strongly to the subject matter."

The Doors formed in 1965 but split in 1973 following the death of lead singer Jim Morrison. They have reportedly sold over 80 million albums worldwide and are famous for songs including 'Riders On The Storm', 'Light My Fire' and 'The End'.
