Johnny Depp says he's overpaid to star in Pirates of the Caribbean, for which he's reportedly earned more than $300 million.

“Basically, if they’re going to pay me the stupid money right now, I’m going to take it,” Depp tells the November issue of Vanity Fair. "I have to. I mean, it’s not for me. Do you know what I mean? At this point, it’s for my kids. It’s ridiculous, yeah, yeah. But ultimately is it for me? No. No. It’s for the kids.”

Wow life must suck for you Johnny... Poor you.

Love his modesty..

he's a great actor.

Overpaid? Is that possible. You can never have enough money unless your name is Opraill Gateswfrey

He looks like a butch lez on that cover

That's very humble of him. He's so modest. He's right though, he didn't deserve 300 million dollars for that role.

Deserves every single penny and more.

He dissapointed me in The Tourist though (the reason why the movie underperformed at the box office) where he got completely outshined by Angelina.

But you can't blame him, can you?

Not bad for a guy who was once a struggling Florida guitar player.

Ofc but they just want you to keep coming back and slaying. He is the most versatile actor in the world (along with Jim Carrey).

I love him.he's amazing actor
but that cover

The movie actually did pretty good. Maybe not in North America, but internationally it did. It ended up doing 287 million (to my surprise, too).

Yeah, and remember he tried convincing people he lived a "normal life", despite him being a millionaire, and then ended up talking about an island he owns?

"We still live very simply. We're not on any millionaire trip and we try to give our children as normal a life as we can. The money buys privacy, security and independence. But I don't really indulge in a lavish lifestyle except for maybe some expensive bottles of wine, and our island, which is our private paradise. It's where I can spend the whole day sitting on the beach, watching our kids play and staring into the sunset."

Ugh this bitch.

Johnny depp is so beautiful

Here didn't say where the island was though or how much he paid for it:

Turns out they have their sliding pay scale or price like any other thing.

I'd want my own island too if I could afford one

What?

Johnny

But 300 million? Just to play a scruffy pirate? **** my goddamn life. That is the definition of "stupid money". But didn't Disney make the movie? ****, they got it.
