However, Lucas joked that the Pirates Of The Caribbean star would have to complete the same formal audition process as all other cast members.
"He'll have to audition like everyone else!" he told The Sun. "Johnny is very friendly and a good laugh."
Lucas stars alongside Depp in the upcoming Alice In Wonderland, directed by Tim Burton. Lucas plays twins Tweedledum and Tweedledee, while Depp is portraying the Mad Hatter.
It was reported in 2005 that Depp was keen to land a cameo role in Little Britain as a friend of transvestite Emily Howard.
