Johnny Depp aka Jack Sparrow

[Crimsonite]

The whole cast is awesome, but I think that Jonny Depp (Captain Sparrow) was the best!!

Johnny Depp really out did himself in the
Pirates of the Caribbean series. No wonder
they paid him 35 million. He deserves it.

He did great in the movie.
He has some serious guts taking the movie roles he takes.
OMG have any of you seen Crybaby?

Well - here's an approximate timeline for JD in the next year...not slowing down anytime soon, that's for sure:

Jan - voice RANGO (animated feature by Gore Verbinski)

March - May (I am guessing a quick 10 -12 week shoot) The Rum Diary

June - promo PE (Public Enemies, being released Summer 2009)

July - August Dark Shadows ( should be another 10 -12 week shoot)

*Thanks to Karen at JohnnyDeppReads.com for piecing the estimated timeline together*

Then, he's also made the deal with Disney to star in POTC4 (2012 release) and The Lone Ranger (no release date yet). And his production company, Infinitum Nihil, has options on numerous books and screenplays, many of which are considered to be starring vehicles for him.

So I wouldn't say he's ready to start collecting Social Security and wearing black socks with sandals anytime soon.

I saw an interview with the producer and the script writer. They said that Johnny Depp completely changed the character from the script...The script had him as a staunch, no foolish pirate. But when interviewed Depp said he wanted to create a character that all ages could relate to....Which IMHO he certainly did! J Depp alias Jack Sparrow...U ROCK!!! I can't imagine anyone else playing the part now...it just wouldn't be the same.
