Johnny Depp's Unique Approach to Selecting Movie Roles
Johnny Depp, the famous actor known for his quirky characters in movies, recently shared why he picks such unusual roles. From playing Edward Scissorhands to the Mad Hatter in "Alice in Wonderland" and the iconic Captain Jack Sparrow in "Pirates of the Caribbean," Depp's roles have been memorable and unconventional. He's made a lot of money from these roles and once explained why he chooses them.
Depp's career took off in 1984 with "A Nightmare on Elm Street," and he's since worked on many projects with director Tim Burton, known for his dark and mysterious films. Depp's portrayal of Captain Jack Sparrow alone earned him around $650 million, making him a crucial part of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series.
In an interview, Depp shared that he deliberately picks roles that are different and not like the usual ones. He likes to fully commit to a character and explore new ideas. Depp believes it's important to challenge himself and the studios by taking on risky roles that might not always be safe choices.
Despite his success, Depp faced some problems in his personal life, which led to him leaving big movie franchises like "Fantastic Beasts" and "Pirates of the Caribbean." There's been talk about him returning to the "Pirates" series, but nothing is confirmed yet.
While Depp's net worth is still high, around $150 million or more, his future in Hollywood is uncertain. There are rumors that Disney might make changes to the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, possibly without Depp.
