Johnny Depp: “I Only Make Movies For My Kids” (Photos)
Celebrity dad Johnny Depp
Hollywood heartthrob Johnny Depp says that he no longer enjoys making movies and instead, only does it for his kids.
The “Pirates of the Caribbean” star, who spends most of his time in France these days, seems to be over his Hollywood and film-making days as he says the only reason why he does them is to secure his children’s financial futures.
Johnny, explains in an interview to Vanity Fair, “Basically, if they’re going to pay me the stupid money now, I’m going to take it. I have to. I mean, it’s not for me. Do you know what I mean?”
“At this point, it’s for my kids. It’s ridiculous, yeah, yeah. But ultimately is it for me? No. No. It’s for the kids.”
While Johnny might think getting paid $300 million for dressing up as Captain Jack Sparrow on the big screen is ridiculous, his two children, Lily and Jack, have 300 million reasons to thank him, as do his fans.

deana commented on Oct 04 11 at 5:21 pmHE HAS TO BE WORTH AT LEAST 450-500 MILLION DOLLARS. How much money does his kids need? I think he is talented, but I have more respect for actors who choose roles (especially those already ridiculously wealthy)for reasons other than money.
And his comparing photoshoots to being raped? Uh….no. He is a big enough star that he can insist on only a few shots if changing into a dozen outfits is upsetting to him.
