Johnny Depp will ALWAYS be our kemo sabe!
He sat down with Rolling Stone magazine before his new movie The Lone Ranger gallops into theaters on July 3. As you can see, Johnny snapped his cover shot dressed as his character Tonto.
But is this movie going to be one of Johnny’s last?!? Maybe his heartbreaking break-up from Vanessa Paradis has Johnny reevaluating what’s most important in life. The 50-year-old actor talked about his tattoos, not wearing underwear and what the future may hold for him.
Ch-ch-check out the HIGHlights …AFTER THE JUMP!!!
ON HIS RETIREMENT
“I think while I’ve got the opportunity and the desire and the creative spark to do the things that I can do right now, I should do them. And then, at a certain point, just take it down to the bare minimum and concentrate on, I guess, living life. Really living life. And going somewhere where you don’t have to be on the run, or sneak in through the kitchen or the underground labyrinth of the hotel. At a certain point, when you get old enough or get a few brain cells back, you realize that, on some level, you lived a life of a fugitive.”
ON HIS VIEW OF THE WORLD
“There’s a great part of me that has deep concerns for, let’s say, the world, as everyone does. If you’re, in any way, sensitive to that stuff and you just keep taking in, taking in, taking in, you’ll drive yourself fucking nuts. You start getting into things, like ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ people are fighting because each one says their god is better than the other. And zillions of f*cking people die. Savagely. Horribly. Innocent people. And, I mean, there’s no way ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ you can’t take that in as a machine and then spit it out as data that makes sense. You can’t do it. So you’ve got ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ you’ve got to protect ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ I don’t know. Protect yourself in a way, like├óΓé¼ΓÇ░.├óΓé¼ΓÇ░.├óΓé¼ΓÇ░.what’s it all about, Alfie? Or, ALF! Probably best to go to ALF, actually. What’s it all about, ALF? I should play ALF. Fucking fantastic. ALF. Yeah, it should be called ALF: The Stuff You Never Saw.”
ON RELAXING
“I don’t know if I can relax. Relax, I can’t do. My brain, on idle, is a bad thing. I just get weird. I mean, not weird. I get, I get antsy.”
ON RIPPING HIS PANTS
“I realized one morning as I was going to a thing my boy had at school – one of those things where, you know, they get up and sing a song? I had to be there at a certain time, and, of course, I was running late and I was reaching back to check and see if I had my wallet and passport and stuff. I always have a passport for some reason. And so I reached back and I thought, ‘Jesus Christ!’ There was this really long tear – and there were no undergarments involved. That’s the general approach. And so, yeah, I just immediately looked for duct tape. I know, it’s pathetic. And then I continue to wear them.”
There may be no bigger character or character actor than Johnny! We sure do hope we keep seeing him star in movies for many years to come.
By the way, his favorite TV show right now? Honey Boo Boo!
