Dec 9, 2023 · Depp's working relationship with Kevin Smith was, at the time, a new development in both their careers. Interestingly, their collaboration on Tusk was partially influenced by the friendship between their daughters, Lily-Rose Depp and Harley Quinn Smith. The two starred in another Kevin Smith movie, 2016's Yoga Hosers.
Depp gained worldwide stardom for his role as Captain Jack Sparrow in the swashbuckler film series Pirates of the Caribbean (2003–2017). He also gained acclaim for starring in Chocolat (2000), and Finding Neverland (2004).

Depp's Character: Barnabus Collins
The most recent movie by Burton and Depp is also their worst, as Dark Shadows fails to reach the lofty heights of their best projects. Billed as a revival of the soap opera from the '60s, Depp stars as Barnabas Collins, a young man living in 1760. When Barnabas rejects the advances of a witch in favor of his one true love, the witch turns Barnabas into a vampire, and he is promptly buried alive. Waking up in 1972, Barnabas connects with his modern ancestors while trying to avenge his lost lov...
Depp's Character: The Mad Hatter
The latest adaptation of Lewis Carroll's legendary tale, Alice in Wonderland is a visual delight as it brings one of the coolest fantasy lands to life. Mia Wasikowska stars as Alice, who, at the age of 19, returns to Wonderland and reunites with the friends she made there. Learning that the villainous Red Queen (Bonham Carter) is planning to take over the kingdom, Alice embarks on her destiny to save Wonderland. Depp stars as the Mad Hatter, Wonderland's mayor, and a rather eccentric hat-make...
Depp's Character: Willy Wonka
Another rendition of one of the greatest children's stories to adapt of all time, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is a modern update of Roald Dahl's story. When Charlie (Freddie Highmore), a kind boy from a poor family, wins a golden ticket, it gifts him the prize of touring Willy Wonka's larger-than-life chocolate factory. Depp plays Wonka, and the actor brings his quirky style to the role as he does his best to fill the legendary shoes left by Gene Wilder. Some fans and critics were put o...
Depp's Character: Ichabod Crane
Leaving the realm of children's movies behind, Burton and Depp combined their powers for this adaptation of the classic ghost tale. When the residents of a town named Sleepy Hollow are beset by a headless horseman who decapitates his victims, police detective Ichabod Crane (Depp) is sent to investigate the issue. Almost operating like a period slasher, Sleepy Hollow sees its villain show no mercy as he cuts through the townsfolk. Christina Ricci co-stars as a local woman who aids Crane in his...
Depp's Character: Victor Van Dort
Filmed simultaneously with Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, it is a wonder that both movies turned out as well as they did. Corpse Bride proved to be the better of the two, and in it, Depp voices Victor Van Dort, a clumsy young man who is arranged to marry Victoria Everglott (Emily Watson). After Victor ruins their wedding rehearsal through a series of unfortunate events, the nervous groom practices his vows outside. Placing his wedding ring on what he believes to be a tree branch, it is so...
Depp's Character: Sweeney Todd
Delivering a slasher musical in the way that only Burton can, Sweeney Todd follows the titular character (played by Depp) as he carves a path of corpses through Victorian-era London. Falsely accused of a crime he did not commit, Todd gets his revenge by operating a barber shop, and murdering his customers with his signature straight razors. Sweeney Todd was well-received by critics and garnered Depp his third Oscar nomination, and his first and only one for a Burton production. It is an adapt...
Depp's Character: Ed Wood
Ed Wood was once considered the worst director in the world. Making a living by creating low-budget sci-fi films, Wood's movies were known for their cheap special effects, technical errors, and over-the-top campy tone. While he was derided at the time, Wood's work has been reappraised after his death and many of his movies have become cult classics. Ed Wood is a biographical film about the legendary director, with Burton giving his kindred spirit his time in the sun. Depp plays Wood, and the...
Depp's Character: Edward Scissorhands
One of Burton's most popular movies, and potentially his best. Edward Scissorhands marked the first time Burton and Depp worked together, and it stands as their greatest creation. As well as being one of Burton's signature films, the role of Edward remains one of Depp's signature characters. Edward is a robot built by a well-intentioned inventor, who died before he could give Edward real hands, dooming him to live with scissor-like appendages. Left to live alone in the house, Edward is discov...
