The Warner people came to see Burton in London, ... They said, 'Let's talk about cast.' And Tim was like, 'Uh, yeah. Let's um talk about cast...so maybe' And they were like, 'What about Johnny' And Tim was like, 'Oh, yeah, good.' (Laughs.) The fact they brought it up was pretty astonishing. It surprised him Tim wanted to cast me in his films but before he had to fight like a bastard with the studio to be able to cast me
More Quotes from Johnny Depp:
I read that I was in bed with her, which is a ton of shit. I have met her and it went like this 'How do you do' 'Hello, how are you' Now when anyone asks about my affair with Madonna I say no, wrong - it was the Pope. He swept me off my feet.Johnny Depp
There is a kind of strange shorthand that it's almost impossible to explain, but it's been there since day one. I've actually had crew members come up to me after watching Tim and I talk about a scene or something and the guy says, 'I watched Tim and you talk for like 10 minutes, and I have no idea what you said, I couldn't understand a word of it.' With Tim it's just much more emotional. I can see it in is eyes, the way he tilts his head a certain way. Or he moves his hands and I can just feel it, you know

Victor was born in that little bit of time, and I didn't hear him for the first time until ... they were recording, ... So the preparation for this, I was remiss basically. I should be flogged.

Villiany wears many masks, non so dangerous as the mask of virtue.

Taken in context, what I was saying was that, compared to Europe, America is a very young country and we are still growing as a nation. It is a shame that the metaphor I used was taken so radically out of context and slung about irresponsibly by the news media. There was no anti-American sentiment. In fact, it was just the opposite. I am an American. I love my country and have great hopes for it. It is for this reason that I speak candidly and sometimes critically about it. I have benefited greatly from the freedom that exists in my country and for this I am eternally grateful.

I don't pretend to be captain weird. I just do what I do.
