The Oscars are a big deal to the acting world, but Johnny Depp isn’t a part of it as he has NEVER won one before! He has been nominated for films such as “Sweeney Todd,” “Pirates Of The Caribbean” and “Finding Neverland” but he has never made the walk to the stage to collect gold. But we’re sure he is not too phased as other actors that are in the same boat as Depp include Brad Pitt, Will Smith and Leonardo DiCaprio!(source)

Throughout his life, Johnny has had great respect and love for horses, both because of his upbringing around these creatures in Kentucky, as well as being offered many roles whereby he needs to ride on one. But the best horse story linked to Johnny Depp is to do with a horse named Goldeneye. Goldeneye was the horse Depp rode in “Sleepy Hollow” named Gunpowder and he jumped at the chance to adopt it when he heard it was about to be put down after the production of the movie. What a nice guy!(source)

When we hear of a multimillionaire actor or actress, we assume they just spend all of their money on them and forget about the little people. But not Depp. On the last day of production for “The Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger’s Tides”, the rain was lashing the entire day and it never let up. Johnny being himself decided to spent over $62,000 on warm rain coats for the entire cast! This isn’t the first gesture he has done for his crew, as many a time he sends in wine from his own vineyard for himself, all the crew and cast members to enjoy while working on a movie! Is there anything this guy doesn’t do?(source)

Along with animals and crew members, Depp even befriends those on death row! He was interested in a case whereby 3 teenagers were suspected of murdering three 8 year old boys. They were in prison for 18 years and the 3 men all claim Johnny to have been “like a brother” through their ordeal, especially Damien Echols who was on death row. These men were innocent and Depp did all that he could to make sure they were released by paying for their legal fees.

Even to this day, Depp and Echols are particularly close and even have matching tattoos. They say that anytime they get together they are most likely to end up in a tattoo parlor making “really meaningful” tattoos to have for the rest of their lives.(source)

He enjoys the 2-3 hour improvisation of being Captain Jack Sparrow and seeing the smiles on the children’s faces. He claims he always “travels with Captain Jack” and so he is prepared to make an entrance at any hospital he wishes.(source)
