A partnership and friendship between the two was struck up when Edward Scissorhands was made in , and after it was released, received a bounty of adoration. Since then, the macabre duo have crafted a total of eight films together, all uniquely weird and wonderful.

Depp of course played the lead, playing one of dreams as vampire Barnabas Collins. But as always Depp shows off his quirky side enough to keep fans engaged. It does also contain the th film appearance of the incomparable Christopher Lee, which is always a welcome presence. The pair have now embarked on their eighth film, an adaptation of the s TV "gothic soap opera" Dark Shadows. Depp, currently the world's highest-earning film actor, will take on the role of vampire Barnabas Collins, the character credited with reviving the fortunes of the original TV show, which ran daily in the US between and , clocking up over 1, episodes.

Depp has long been known for airing his disdain towards Hollywood. In a Hello! Magazine interview via the Johnny Depp Zone Interview Archive , he talked about how he could make more money doing "dumb comedies or slick Hollywood garbage. It's all about commerce. I don't think that art can come from that place. But, I aspire to be an artist someday. Yet in the LA Times piece about Depp and Burton, Depp said about Burton, "Without embarrassing him, he's a true artist, which is something I wasn't sure was possible in today's cinema.

Looking at Johnny Depp's long climb to the top of the Hollywood pyramid, one can only be struck by how quickly he fell.

It's been quite a ride. In Depp's bitter divorce from Amber Heard was drawing a lot of press , much of it detailing his vitriol towards seemingly almost everybody. In it was announced that Depp was being dropped from the newest "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" film, his last remaining blockbuster role after Disney axed him from the "Pirates of the Caribbean" franchise.

Most of the attention Depp has received recently comes from his back-and-forth battle against Heard, as well as recent battles with everybody from his management to, seemingly, himself. Needless to say, this kind of attention is undesirable for studios betting tens and in some cases hundreds of millions of dollars on projects.

He has an upcoming movie scheduled, but it doesn't look like it will necessarily deliver the huge paychecks Depp has grown accustomed to. Burton fans can look forward to a new TV project about the Addams Family , one in which there are rumors he's reportedly fighting to get his longtime friend a role, as Gomez Addams.

Of course, he was also front and center when they broke up, while Depp was filming "Ed Wood" with the director. According to a Mirror UK article , Burton said he would show up to the set sobbing. After the breakup, "I felt weird to be around him like he wasn't acting like Johnny anymore. It's almost like Winona took Johnny's soul, Johnny's love.
