WHAT: JOHNNY DEPP will be immortalized in a Hollywood landmark when
he places his hand and footprints in cement in the forecourt of
the world-famous Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.
Honorary Mayor of Hollywood Johnny Grant will emcee the event.
WHO: JOHNNY DEPP has earned both critical and popular acclaim for
his unique work in a variety of memorable feature films. Tim
Burton's "Corpse Bride" marks Depp's fifth collaboration with
director Tim Burton. Most recently, he collaborated with
Burton on the fantasy adventure "Charlie and the Chocolate
Factory." Based on the beloved Roald Dahl classic, Depp played
eccentric chocolatier Willy Wonka.
Recently, Depp received an Academy Award nomination, Golden
Globe nomination, Screen Actor's Guild nomination and BAFTA
nomination for his role as J.M. Barry in Mark Forster's
"Finding Neverland" in which he starred opposite Kate Winslet
and Freddie Highmore.
Depp also received an Academy Award nomination, Golden Globe
nomination, BAFTA nomination and a Screen Actor's Guild Award
for Best Actor for his portrayal of Captain Jack Sparrow in the
action adventure "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the
Black Pearl." He is currently filming "Pirates of the
Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" and "Pirates of the Caribbean 3."
Hailed as the "Best Actor" of his generation for his
performance in Mike Newell's "Donnie Brasco" with Al Pacino,
Depp has also starred in Jim Jarmusch's "Dead Man" and in
Jeremy Leven's "Don Juan Demarco" in which he starred as a man
convinced he is the world's greatest lover, opposite legendary
actors Marlon Brando and Faye Dunaway.
It was his compelling performance in the title role of Tim
Burton's "Edward Scissorhands" that established Depp as one of
Hollywood's most sought-after talents and earned him a Best
Actor Golden Globe nomination. Depp reunited with Burton for
the critically acclaimed "Ed Wood" for which his performance
garnered him his third Best Actor Golden Globe nomination.
Depp began his career as a musician, joining a rock group named
"Kids," which eventually took him to Los Angeles. When the
band broke up, he turned to acting and earned his first major
acting job in "Nightmare on Elm Street." He went on to earn
roles in several films including Oliver Stone's Academy
Award-winning "Platoon." Depp then won the role that would
prove to be his breakthrough, as undercover detective Tom
Hanson on the popular Fox television show "21 Jump Street." He
starred on the series for four seasons before segueing to the
big screen in the lead role of John Waters' "Cry Baby."
