As an actor in a leading role probably not but I am not going to say no yet. So I’m 50/50 on it. Possibly yes: Depp needs to find better scripts and stop being typecasted so much. That’s why celebrities like Will Smith, Jim Carrey, Adam Sandler, Melissa McCarthy, or even Michael Cera don’t even bring people into cinemas anymore. He was actually considered a box office superstar at one point in time? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frozen Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 No. After Jack Sparrow he was typecast as the next goofy character and that's all he was offered. He took too many obvious flops for the money alone. He's not a draw and he's probably not willing to work for a reduced paycheck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's doing all these indie movies i imagine he's not gonna be paid much. agreed about typecasting tho. It's gonna be hard for people to accept him in a normal role/ without the face paint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking up typecast celebs. Superbad & Juno was on my mind. But I don’t really think he was the real draw of those films. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 His time as a box office powerhouse are over, could make a comeback in smaller movies. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big studios very likely won't work with him at least for the time being. So he can re-brand himself like McConaughey did prior to his Oscar win. Pick strong roles in strong small movies and take it from there. In all honesty, having to leave the sinking ship Fantastic Beasts is a blessing in disguise for him save paycheck loss of course.

Napoleon Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 I will never underestimate Hollywood's ability to protect abusive white men, so I won't bet against a Johnny Depp comeback. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAJK Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Honestly I think a lot of this will be about whether Herd makes a comeback. If one of them does, both will. If one doesn't, neither will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullbuster Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 I thought he was abused by Amber, I even saw a #JusticeforJohnnyDepp hashtag in trends several days ago...why do people here keep spitting on him then?

That doesn’t mean he’s guilty of abusing her, but some people like to take it as proof against him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noctis Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Yeah, he's done. After being fired from FB, he's never doing any big-budget movies ever again. Most likely all he can do right now are indie films. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
