Johnny Depp a great character actor: Tim Burton

“It’s enjoyable working with him. I like actors that like to become characters. Some actors make a career out of being themselves in a movie. But I’ve always enjoyed those real character actors that just like to become different creatures,

and he’s that way,” Burton said.

“In ‘Scissorhands’,he didn’t speak. On ‘Ed Wood’,he didn’t shut up! On ‘Sweeney Todd’ he sings. He’s always trying something different on every movie. It’s always a new territory with him,” he added.
