The Venice Film Festival on Friday announced the out-of-competition world premiere of Warner Bros. Pictures’ drama Black Mass, starring Johnny Depp, at the 72nd edition of the big film event in September.

Directed by Scott Cooper (Crazy Heart, Out of the Furnace), the film sees Depp play notorious gangster James “Whitey” Bulger. The ensemble cast also includes Joel Edgerton, Benedict Cumberbatch, Rory Cochrane, Jesse Plemons, Dakota Johnson, Peter Sarsgaard and Kevin Bacon.

Black Mass will be screened on Sept. 4 in the Sala Grande at the Palazzo del Cinema at Venice Lido.

The film is about an FBI agent, played by Edgerton, who in 1970s Boston persuades Irish mobster Bulger (Depp) to collaborate with the FBI to eliminate their common enemy, the Italian mob. "The drama tells the story of this unholy alliance, which spiraled out of control, allowing Whitey to evade law enforcement while consolidating his power and becoming one of the most ruthless and dangerous gangsters in Boston history," according to a film description.

Warner will distribute Black Mass worldwide beginning Sept. 18. Its Italian release is scheduled for Oct. 1.

The 72nd Venice International Film Festival will take place Sept. 2-Sept. 12.

"I had just come out of the Empire State. I was walking around the avenue and stores, the store's name I met her is Urban something. When I was leaving and I looked at the snack bar that was at the store, I recognized her right there, then when I saw her boyfriend I was even more sure because I saw many pictures of them together. My legs trembled, I was speechless, my head went into a tailspin, I waited that she gets out of the line and then I talked to her, despite having many years of English, I spoke the words all wrong, I asked, "Can you take a picture with you?" She kind of was floating but she understood, and she answered softly something, I don't remember if it was yes or of course but she put her hand on my arm, her skin is very soft and have no stain. Is very beautiful. I took 2 identical photos, her boyfriend was embarrassed too and he waited at the door, they were both wearing sunglasses and I realized they wanted to be discrete.  I said "I'm going to die" but in Portuguese and she waited super quiet while I pick up the camera. When we finished, she seemed to expect that I would do something like give a kiss to her but I only took her arm because I ran out reaction and also because they don't like these gestures, at least not New-Yorkers. She was like in super beautiful clothes and very stylish as well, I didn't take much about her hair but you could even see that it was well silky and soft. I said thank you and she said "You're welcome" very softly, her voice is very sweet. After that I came out of the store and I was so stunned that I got lost, I went into a street that I didn't know and I ended almost in Times Square, which is very far from where I was, but I could find my way back. My God, never even I contemplated this idea because I thoust it was believed impossible, I never thought about it, I will thank to God every day!"

Paper Towns is a lot about really strong friendship. How important is that to you, and how easy is it to have in this industry? 

I love people, and I love my friends more than anything. Friends are family to me in so many ways. I still have all my old best friends I’ve had since I was at school, but I think along the way I’ve managed to meet a lot of amazing, incredible, inspiring people who again, yes are as busy as me, but it’s the nicest thing in the world where you kind of can find time in the busiest of schedules to kind of meet up, and we understand each other. We go through the same thing, we have our private lives, public, and it’s nice to have that — people to rely on.

What friend do you call if you’re having a really bad day? 

Again, I speak to a bunch of people every day. From my oldest friends like Georgia (May Jagger) and Suki (Waterhouse), to like, Jordan (Dunn) to Dakota (Johnson), or Kendall (Jenner), or you know, any of them, like I’ll call pretty much every day. I FaceTime Taylor every week. FaceTime is the best thing in the world, it really is.

Have you been in Barcelona?
Dakota: "Yeah, Si."

Several times, once?
Dakota: "Several times."

How was working with Amenabar?
