With the second instalment imminent, he talks to John Hiscock
Johnny Depp absent-mindedly runs his tongue over the gold tooth gleaming in his mouth as he struggles to explain how, after a career spent mostly dodging fame, he has ended up as one of the biggest stars in the world. “It doesn’t make sense,” he confesses. “Nothing has changed from my point of view.”
