Johnny Depp will play alongside rock legend Alice Cooper and Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry as the supergroup Hollywood Vampires at an upcoming music festival in Rio de Janeiro.
Cooper announced in an Instagram post over the weekend that the band would play several nights at the Rock in Rio festival this September.
"Confirmed! #RockInRio announces Debut Of #TheHollywoodVampires! The #Supergroup, featuring #AliceCooper, #JohnnyDepp and #JoePerry plays on the same night as #QueensOfTheStoneAge and #SystemOfADown," Cooper wrote.
Depp, 51, is a longtime guitarist who has previously performed with Marilyn Manson, Bob Dylan and Keith Richards.
According to Rolling Stone, the supergroup was named after a drinking club, which was founded by Cooper in the 1970s and included John Lennon, Keith Moon and Ringo Starr.
Depp told reporters last month that he is "sickened" by actors who use their fame to become musicians.
"I've been very lucky to play on friends' records and it's still going. Music is still part of my life," he said at the time. "But you won't be hearing The Johnny Depp Band. That won't ever exist."
It's been a busy few weeks for Depp, who married model and actress Amber Heard in two separate ceremonies this month.
