LOS ANGELES – Who exactly is Johnny Depp? Kids today know the actor for his colorful, Halloween-ready characters such as swaggering pirate Jack Sparrow, eccentric confectioner Willy Wonka and now as the gothic groom with cold feet named Victor – By Hanh Nguyen for the Star Online.

In his latest guise, Depp gives voice to the stop-motion animated puppet hero in Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride. While filming Charlie and the Chocolate Factory for Burton, Depp was called upon to create Victor on short notice. After shooting a scene earlier in the day as Wonka, the actor rushed over to the Corpse Bride recording studio where he cobbled together a persona based on a 15-minute grilling session with Burton.

“(Victor) was born in that little bit of time, and I didn’t hear him for the first time until … they were recording,” explains Depp. “So the preparation for this, I was remiss basically. I should be flogged.”

Contact Music – JOHNNY DEPP has missed out on the chance to star alongside ROLLING STONE KEITH RICHARDS, because the rocker’s schedule is too busy.

The CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY star had been looking forward to Richards making a cameo appearance as his dad in 2006’s PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: DEAD MAN’S CHEST.

Depp says, ” It doesn’t look like it will happen now. Keith is on tour so it’s hard to fit into the timeframe we’re working to.”

Johnny Depp told SCI FI Wire that he never paid attention to the box-office performance of his films until his recent blockbuster hits Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.

“I’ve learned to sort of condition myself to not have any expectations in terms of box office or result to that degree, because, as you all well know as well I do, that kind of thing escaped me for many, many years,” Depp said at a small press conference at the Toronto International Film Festival. “So it’s relatively a new experience to have more than a few people go and see my films. But it’s very exciting.”

The whole box-office game is foreign to him, Depp said in Toronto, where he is promoting his voice work in director Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride. He said he called his agent recently to ask how Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was doing. “She said, ‘Yeah. It looks like it’s going to cross the $200 million mark domestically,’” he said. “I didn’t know what that meant, and I said, ‘Well, is that good?’ She said, ‘Yeah. It’s very good.
