Rare among American actors, Depp has made a name for himself effortlessly switching between mainstream Hollywood movies and more "out of the ordinary" projects. Talking about his choice of roles, he once said, " With any part you play, there is a certain amount of yourself in it. There has to be, otherwise it’ s not acting. It’ s lying." Highlights of a richly diverse career include Edward Scissorhands, Sleepy Hollow and Pirates of the Caribbean.
Depp dropped out of school at sixteen to concentrate on a career in music, playing the guitar (he played with more than twenty bands). However, his musical career failed to take off, and he found himself selling pens over the phone to pay the bills. His lucky break came when makeup artist Lori Allison, to whom he was briefly married, introduced him to Nicolas Cage. Although at first they did not like each other, they later became good friends and Cage persuaded him to try acting. Depp signed on with Cage’ s agent, and made his feature film debut in Wes Craven’ s horror film Nightmare on Elm Street, in which the character he played was eaten by his bed. After that he had his first screen leading role in Pirate Resort.
Depp went on to achieve teen idol status in the TV series 21 Jump Street, but after four seasons, he wanted out, with the hope of making the transition to the big screen. He starred in Cry Baby, followed by Tim Burton’ s Edward Scissorhands, after which he went on to win considerable critical acclaim in Ed Wood, a reunion with Burtons. Depp made his feature directorial debut with The Brave in 1997, a film he also co-wrote and starred in. Premiering at the Cannes Film Festival, the film also featured Marlow Brando, but earned mostly negative reviews, with most critics blaming its weak script. Sleepy Hollow teamed him with director Burton yet again, before he starred in Ted Demme’ s Blow, and appeared in the thriller From Hell, about Jack the Ripper.
Off screen, his good looks and "bad boy" image (he was once arrested for attacking intrusive paparazzi with a wooden plank)have earned him a lot of media attention. He was voted one of the fifty most beautiful people in the world by People magazine in 1996. He has also had his fair share of celebrity romances: when his engagement to Edward Scissirhands costar Winona Ryder ended, he had a tattoo (one of at least eight), which said " Winona Forever" , altered by laser to get rid of the last two letters of her name. His relationship with model Kate Moss also ended abruptly in 1998, when he started dating French singer—actress Vanessa Paradis. They are now married and have two children, Lily-Rose Melody and Jack. More recent work has included Pirates of the Caribbean with Geoffrey Rush and Once Upon a Time in Mexico.
