The crew from the big-budget movie “Public Enemies” — starring Johnny Depp — is expected to conduct more filming in Wisconsin this week.

And that’s good news for officials who say the filming has been a boon to their local economies.

“Public Enemies” stars Depp as John Dillinger, whose crime spree ended when he was shot to death in Chicago by FBI agents on July 22, 1934.

It is directed and produced by Michael Mann, and co-stars Christian Bale as FBI agent Melvin Purvis.

Producers have also filmed scenes in Chicago; Aurora, Illinois; and Crown Point, Indiana.

Film Wisconsin executive director Scott Robbe says he expects the movie to bring in $20 million to the state by the time filming is over.
