Johnny Depp agrees with most of his fans—his favorite role is playing Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Carribbean.
Johnny says, "I can't wait to get back in costume. Some people will say, 'Aha, Depp sold out by doing the sequels.' But it was never an issue for me. I love Captain Jack so much I'd do Pirates 7 if they asked me."
I wonder if the money has anything to do with it? He is earning around $31.6 million to appear in the fourth installment of the film, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. Sadly, Keira Knightley and Orlando Bloom are not coming back for the sequel.
He added, "Sometimes you fall in love with who you're playing. As filming winds down, you hear the clock ticking because you know you're going to leave your character behind and a kind of odd separation anxiety kicks in. You get irritable and just sort of melancholy. That's what happened to me when we wrapped the first Pirates of the Caribbean. I realized I was going to miss Captain Jack. I had felt so comfortable being him and being in that skin. Suddenly you go, 'Am I ever going to see him again?' "
