Edgar Wright and Johnny Depp are teaming up to adapt Fortunately, the Milk, based on a Neil Gaiman story, in a hot package that is in early negotiations to be acquired by Fox.

Wright would helm the film, which is intended to be a live-action/animation hybrid which will have a script by Bret McKenzie, the writer known as being one half of the musical comedy duo Flight of the Conchords.

Depp will star in and produce along with animation house Animal Logic Entertainment (The Lego Movie), which acquired the book out of pocket and packaged it.. Zareh Nalbandian will produce for Animal Logic.

Gaiman's children's book is described as "a story of time travel and breakfast cereal." It starts out with a father who goes to the store to buy some milk and returns with wild tales of aliens, space-time travel, pirates and more.

Oh my...
