Johnny Depp on "Corpse Bride" and "Pirates 2 & 3"
Wednesday September 14, 2005
Johnny Depp says that "Tim Burton's Corpse Bride" is one of the few movies of his he can actually relax and enjoy watching. "Honestly, it's like the first time that I was able to watch a movie that I was involved in that I didn't hate because I felt a distance. I felt the character," explained Depp in an interview in support of "Corpse Bride" at the Toronto Film Festival."Corpse Bride" is Tim Burton's latest stop motion animated film and marks the fifth time the director has worked with actor Johnny Depp. And while it used to take some convincing to get studios to back a movie with Depp, with the recent success of "Pirates of the Caribbean" it's no longer a struggle. When Burton wanted Depp to voice the lead character of Victor in "Corpse Bride," the studio didn't just jump on the idea - they actually beat Burton to the punch and suggested it themselves.
