How is johnny depp a good role model

He became really popular. Girls followed him everywhere, screamed, collected his things, and wrote to him. He got the greatest volume of mail in LA, more than However, even he was in the top of his career of being really famous and known by everyone, he didn't become big headed. He stayed cool, that's what Johnny did. He said "I don't want to make a career of taking my shirt off.

I'd like to shave off all my hair, even my eyebrows, try it that way. I don't fault the TV stars who do teen magazines. They took hold of their situations, took offers that gave them the big money fast, but they were dead in two years.

I don't want that. After his career became successful not only good things happened to him. He also had some bad times in his life. He got into the jail many times. He has had bad relationships, and others. He notes that having children has give him a strong place to live on, to work, to everything. Johnny Depp's life is an inspiration for me. Many hard times came to him, bad times made him down, but he has proven that he can go the distance.

He dares to take the most challenging acts possible which make him be honored. His talents make me call him "The eccentric actor. There are multiple barriers men face if they fall out of the heteronormative script, even if they are of status.

So, what hope do other male survivors have for justice? Who do men reach out too for help when they need someone to count on? This issue is highly embedded in feminist theory and is explained as the patriarchy oppressing men who do not conform to traditionalist masculine gender norms and patterns.

He lost his case and even called for an appeal, however, his libel case was turned down, which by no means was a surprise. But will his case and act of bravery affect other males who have been sexually, emotionally, mentally, or physically abused? Furthermore, the Warner Bros asked Depp to resign from the Fantastic Beasts franchise as Grindelwald after he lost his case, and the role has now been given to Mads Mikkelsen.

This is not the only iconic role he lost; he will also no longer be playing Jack Sparrow. Anyone can be a victim of abuse. It is our job to unlearn societal norms, take domestic abuse experiences from men seriously, and be an ally.

She worked as a makeup artist while Depp worked as a telemarketer for a pen company. They rented a house in LA which was owned by Nicholas Cage. They would often hang out together for a game of monopoly, and on one such evening, Nicholas Cage advised Depp to take acting as a career. In , he played the main role in Edward Scissorhands which defined him as an actor.

Despite being a part of almost 69 movies and with countless other accolades to his name, Depp has never won an Academy Award. Disney signed Johnny Depp for Pirates of the Caribbean in Looking forward to a film that appealed to adults and teenage audiences, Producer Jerry Bruckheimer felt Depp was best suited for the role.

He delayed the shooting of the fifth Pirates of the Caribbean film because of what he said was a hand injury — which Heard claimed in court occurred when he punched a wall during one of their fights — and there were reports from that set that Depp was drinking heavily and needed to have his lines fed to him through an earpiece.

But probably one of the better clues came from Jerry Bruckheimer, who produces the Pirates franchise. It has been a long time now since Depp was cool. The photos of him in London during the case, wearing a Rasta hat and matching striped T-shirt, brought a sad pang for those old enough to remember when he was the most stylish man in the world. His last genuinely good film was Sweeney Todd in , and he has spent the past few years making turkeys such as Lone Ranger, The Tourist and a genuinely unbearable cologne advert.

His loyal fans would say that it all went wrong when he left Paradis for Heard in But it feels that the rot started before that. His life quickly became absurd. The whole thing is grotesquely over the top and crassly predictable, with Depp wanging on and on and on about Thompson and Richards, and sharing the advice Brando gave him about how to buy an island. He insisted that his former managers had stolen millions from him; they claimed he had spent it.

Who, really, can maintain any sense of reality when they are dealing with those sums of money? Maybe some people, but not fiftysomethings who idolise Hunter S Thompson. Depp made the classic fanboy mistake of focusing only on the glamorous, external trappings of his heroes. But all of them wrestled with the question of how hellraisers deal with getting older in a way that Depp, apparently, has not.

Richards quit hard drugs in and Iggy Pop also cleaned up long ago. Thompson killed himself at 67 , ground down by poor health and depression; Brando ended up a bloated mess.

Depp could easily have grown into a figure like Richards or Iggy Pop: clean, cool, critically acclaimed, a revered cultural figure.

Instead, in the past few years, it has become clear he has chosen the other option. That now feels like an alternative universe. It would be easy to dismiss this as yet another spoilt, obnoxious celebrity shown up for being spoilt and obnoxious — easy but wrong, because that would miss why Depp was so compelling for so long.

Until the allegations of abuse emerged, the stories that came out about Depp were, by and large, notably nice. Kind, even. But over the past decade, things started to change. Where once he drove journalists around LA and France and regaled them with loquacious thoughts about life, his more recent encounters with the press have had the feeling of Kurtz barricading himself in the jungle. In , he gave an interview to Rolling Stone , ostensibly about how he lost all his money, and ended up keeping the journalist, Stephen Rodrick, with him for three days.
