Wonka our guys from Debs high points in his life to his low points as well we'll be looking at a list of interesting secrets and facts you probably didn't know about Captain Jack Sparrow aka Johnny Depp Captain Jack Sparrow but before we begin we hope you stay until the end because you won't want to miss what we have in store also leave a like on the video and subscribe click that notification bell so you can be the first to view what film focus contents that we have for you in the future [Applause] [Music] number 10 he's a talented musician now it's relatively known that Johnny Depp is a talented guitarist and has held a love for music ever since the age of 12 after being gifted a guitar by his mother [Music] but he's also a gifted drummer he was involved in a number of garage bands and the hobby took up so much of his time that he inevitably decided to drop out of high school and it's not like he didn't try to go back later on but his own principal saw so much potential in his music that he actually encouraged him to pursue it as a professional career however had never went anywhere in the beginning he could barely scrape by living in a friend's Chevy Impala and eventually moving to LA with his band the kids in hopes of finding their way they didn't find their way but he has met played and worked for various musicians which include Marilyn Manson flee from the Red Hot Chili Peppers Steve Jones of the Sex Pistols and even Alice Cooper number nine is mentor know when deputies band did move to Los Angeles in 83 his then-wife Laurie Allison was able to introduce him to Nicolas Cage who would have thought but clearly it didn't work out without Nicholas's help and guiding Johnny he never would have earned his first legitimate role in the classic horror film A Nightmare on Elm Street however his big break would soon come after he'd portrayed Tommy Hanson in the 80's television series 21 Jump Street so try that just put good thought you're trying to get in with VL 13 right as Vario local on 13th Street so there's like 1 3 right you got it there was also his hilarious cameo in the 2012 movie of the same name his most iconic role of course will be Edward Scissorhands now if only Nicholas and Johnny had the opportunity to work together and face-off instead of John Travolta am i right it almost did happen but because of a misunderstanding in the film's plot it just kind of fell apart and ever since they've been nothing but great friends with Depp even bailing out Nicolas Cage when he owed millions and back taxes [Music] number eight he kept his role in fantastic beasts a secret now with as much success as Johnny Depp has had fans did figure it was only a matter of time before he would be in a Harry Potter movie the fantastic be storyline begins about thirty years prior to the Harry Potter Cinematic Universe as we follow a younger and more lethal Grindelwald however in fantastic beasts were made to think that we're following Percival graves the entire time when and a massive twist ending it's revealed to actually be killer Grindelwald aka Johnny Depp it's a twist that not even the film's cast knew about until near end of production and any scenes that showed up were shot in a single day he barely spoke to the rest of the cast dyed his hair white one day and afterwards every scene would be filmed and he immediately went back to black now according to Rowling we can expect another four fantastic beasts sequels planned with depth despite all of the recent controversies Johnny Depp is deathly afraid of clowns number seven he suffers from coulrophobia also known as having the fear of clowns you shouldn't ever expect to see him watching it according to sources his fear is so severe that he once banned his ex-wife Amber Heard from watching American Horror Story freak show mainly because of twisty the clown all right that I can understand they're painted on smiles say that they mean well but the eyes the eyes just say otherwise Johnny's even brought up the phobia once before stating that he has this fear of clowns so I think that if I surround myself with them it will ward off all evil now I don't know if it'll ward off any evil but it might just be traumatic enough to help you overcome it there's a small fortune in there help yourself happy hunting number six he was riotous at a young age Wow shocker from as young as the age of 12 Depp lived for the bad-boy life and at the same age his mom would give him his first guitar so that's when he got into the nasty habit of smoking now in all fairness it does somewhat match his bad-boy image that he'd have going on but despite trying to quit on numerous occasions a lesser known fact about him is that he hand rolls his own cigarettes with imported Bali tobacco now to match the image Depp's also notorious for losing his vCard at just the tender age of 13 he would be touring locally with his first band the flame and after a show met a groupie in the backseat of a car by age 14 he'd only dig himself deeper by apparently doing every drug in the book and then by the age of 16 he dropped out of high school but everybody of course knows how that turned out number five he created Jack Sparrow now what Disney originally had in mind for Captain Jack Sparrow was a more suave and daring and romantic character with this in mind as their ideal pirates they of course saw Johnny Depp as the closest thing at the time Johnny Depp on the other hand had a completely different vision for his character and suggested they moved toward the idea of gold teeth and dirty skin and always being drunk he also wanted captain Sparrow to be without a nose Depp sure has some kind of imagination it did take some convincing well a lot of it but as we've come to learn most of what Johnny wanted came true and it turned out really well if you take into consideration how all five films have earned over 4.5 billion dollars worldwide there's also the fact that Captain Jack is now one of Disney's most iconic characters in recent years this is where you go in the Bahamas that's called little hauls pond decay 45 acres in the Bahamas well it certainly looks beautiful and you have a pond there is that like a salt a pond in the middle yeah it's a little brackish water yeah number four he owns two islands now what's the first thing you would buy if you had four hundred million dollars well probably not an island but as sure as possible apparently Depp loved playing his drunken counterpart on the big screen so much that he went and bought two tropical islands the first came out in 2004 when he purchased little halls pond Cay a 45 acre island in the Bahamas and the second in 2015 the Greek island of strongly for a cool 4.2 million euros his Bahamian home however is certainly the more developed and sought-after location with six beaches named after his ex-partner his children and his good friends and the coast also features a solar-powered home along with lagoons lined with palm trees a 156 foot yacht and even hosted the wedding ceremony for him and now ex-wife Amber Heard number three his ridiculous paychecks while Johnny Depp's first semi-big role came in Nightmare on Elm Street it only earned him twenty five thousand dollars and his popularity as a teen idol would skyrocket during the 80s thanks to 21 Jump Street as a result his growing fanbase led him to $45,000 per episode of Jump Street and by 1995 he had stepped away from television and onto the silver screen averaging five million dollars per movie then in 2003 he was given ten million for his portrayal of Jack Sparrow and from there he became the megastar earning a measly fifteen million dollars for any movie he did including 50 million for the 2010 Alice in Wonderland and 55 million for his work on Pirates of the Caribbean on Stranger Tides now while a lot of people could say that Johnny Depp is hugely overpriced he's also earned the movie studios seven point eight billion dollars with a B and the Oscar goes to Sean Penn number two he still hasn't won an Oscar now despite holding a long list of accolades in the Golden Globes the Screen Actors Guild the BAFTA Film Awards and a whole lot of People's Choice Awards has if right now Johnny Depp only holds three nominations for the coveted Academy Awards now to sum he's their Leonardo DiCaprio how ironic and with any luck his portrayal as Grindelwald and the upcoming fantastic beasts sequel will prove otherwise however most are doubtful but there is always that next captain Sparrow movie right yeah but I didn't have a job the entire back of his job at this telemarketing number one he was a telemarketer now as I mentioned earlier when Johnny was still planning on becoming a successful musician and move to LA with Lori and his bandmates they needed to find a way to support each other the gigs weren't cutting it however so during this in-between period Depp would man the lines as a telemarketer and sell pens of all things along with trips to Greece and even offered up a grandfather clock it does kind of sound like a great deal but as Depp would put it he was awful as a salesman if only he had the same sales drive as say mr. Jordan Belfort but it did offer up some experience in acting kind of depending on how you look at it and with that said it concludes what are a few interesting facts about Johnny Depp feel free to comment what you thought about today's video and leave a like if you enjoyed it also don't forget to subscribe and push the notification button to see more film focus videos like this one in the near future have yourselves an excellent day
