I think he likes doing those type of roles. The characters are different and stand out. We remember those types of characters.

Okay, Jack Sparrow is the only character I really liked that he played. And you forgot about the dude he played in Secret Window, he was just weird then. But as for your question, I think it's because he has the ability to look just a little bit crazy. In all the roles I've seen him in he always plays the one who's either crazy or just plain different. Scissorhands: different. Willy Wonka: crazy and different. Secret Window dude: just plain nuts. And Jack Sparrow: just crazy enough to be a true pirate.

Love ya, Captain Jack!

I like Johnny Depp but, my family thinks I'm a freak and they think he is a freak too.That may help you with your answer. Off the subject**** I don't think that the recent Willy Wonka movie was very good; the first movie was better and the book, as always, was the best. Roald Dahl would roll over in his grave if he saw what they did when they created this last movie.****

Alot of it is working with Tim Burton, who does different (and fun) stuff. But I think he enjoys a challanging role. Finding Neverland , What's Eating Gilbert Grape, Chocolat, and Benny&Joon were a bit more on the "normal" side, I suppose, but a little more out there than usual.

Johnny Depp as a vampire? He could really work that!

Even as a younger actor he was afraid of being type-cast for certain roles. I.E., he didn't want to be "stuck" in the same type of role for the rest of his career, he wanted to branch out and show what he could do. The "weird" parts you're describing actually require more acting talent and a broader skill base than most others.

Because he can play them Oh so well. Not all of his movies are like that though. Ever watch Dead Man or crap now I can only thik of others movies he's in where he is weird. well he is a little weird. & wait Jack Sparrow isn't that weird of a character.

some clever adult adult males look for heart extremely of what's Hollywood Socially proper. the stars could desire to look that way! look what occurred to Kirstie Alley. there is too plenty stress on human beings to look skinny, and the media feeds that stress. maximum actresses are advised that the digital camera provides ten kilos. Actors usually have skinny better halves as properly. that's the stress to adapt. and a few adult adult males like skinny women human beings!!! Oprah have been given very fortunate with Steadman. He loves her unconditionally!!! the middle needs what it needs. via the way, my Daughter used to have a great weigh down on Johnny Depp. She have been given over it and is a mom and is married to a great guy. discover somebody who will love you unconditionally (fat or skinny).

Because he is a fantastic actor and likes to "stretch" his abilities. I cannot imagine anyone else playing Jack Sparrow - he's awesome in those movies.

because, my lad, johnny always plays a great psychotic freak. it would have been queer to see him as Tom Cruise in War of the Worlds, or some other dramatic role. No, psychotic roles fit him better. but i find it disturbing that girls find him handsome, i mean, he's weird lookin'! but I loved him as Captian Jack. That was a piece of work.

He likes them b/c they are unique. He recently said in an interview that Jack Sparrow, was the "spawn" of his ideas that made the character unique and fun and that nobody else would have thought of play him that way.
