​1. Gilbert Grape - What's Eating Gilbert Grape

​Young Depp plays Gilbert who has to single handedly take care of his morbidly-obese widowed mother. This beautifully shot and complex film also stars Leonardo Di Caprio and Juliette Lewis.

​2.Edward Scissorhands - Edward Scissorhands

​Edward Scissorhands, in which Depp plays the lead as Edward, is possibly one of his most poignant films. In this movie, Depp is a humanoid who has scissors for hands and has to deal with love and rejection at the same time. The movie also stars Winona Ryder who is plays his love interest.

​3.Jack Sparrow - Pirates Of The Caribbean series

​Captain Jack Sparrow happens to be one of the most iconic roles Depp has played. Pirates Of The Caribbean, in which he's a drunken, nasty and yet witty pirate, went on to become a blockbuster series with the actor winning hearts across the world.

​4.Mad Hatter - Alice In Wonderland

​Almost unrecognisable in the character of the Mad Hatter, Johnny delivered yet another remarkable performance in this fictitious adaptation of the novel of the same name.

​5.Willy Wonka - Charlie And The Chocolate Factory

​Willy Wonka is a famous literary character created by British author Roald Dahl, in his 1964 book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. It was first adapted into a film in 1971 as Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, where the legendary Gene Wilder played the famously eccentric chocolatier.

​6.Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007)

​Depp, as shown through Tim Burton’s critically-acclaimed horror musical classic, delivered an Academy Award-nominated performance as Sweeney Todd in a get-up that impressed audiences across the globe.

​Black Mass is noted for being one of Johnny Depp’s most unrecognisable makeovers. Playing the real-life Boston crime boss in the film, Depp plays the titular character in this superhit film.
