Tmz :    George Jung — Johnny Depp’s real-life cocaine-dealing inspiration for the movie “Blow” — is still locked up in prison … but TMZ has learned Jung is in talks with a TV show interested in doing a special on his life behind bars.

Sources close to Jung tell TMZ … producers from the National Geographic Channel show “Locked Up Abroad” have reached out to the infamous coke kingpin in the hopes of featuring him on a documentary-style special on his “experiences surrounding Jung’s imprisonment and release.”
