During his 20 year film career many things have changed for Pirates of the Caribbean star Johnny Depp, but two have remained constant - his taste for quirky, edgy roles and his stunning good looks. Depp is now a Hollywood veteran, and one of the world's most respected, best loved actors. His recent roles, in films including Blow and Chocolat, show an actor in his prime, oozing the sex appeal and sensitivity that first captured attention in oddball classics such as Cry Baby and Edward Scissorhands. Adored by millions yet happily settled with partner Vanessa Paradis and family, Depp seems to have it all. Yet his success is hard won. Arriving on screen fresh from a troubled childhood and a rebellious adolescence, being cast as a heart-throb did not sit easily with the complex young Depp. His tortured soul was revealed to the world via bad boy antics off-screen, and a string of volatile relationships, including a marriage to Winona Ryder, and a grand affair with supermodel Kate Moss. Meanwhile his refusal to conform bought him great acclaim onscreen, playing 'outsider' roles in artistically adventurous films.
These established him a serious actor with a comic gift, most recently demonstrated in the worldwide smash hit Pirates of the Caribbean, which has seen him cross over to a family audience. Johnny Depp: A Modern Rebel looks at the highs and lows of Depp's life and career, and is now updated to include all of his recent and forthcoming films."About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
