End of Jack Sparrow

Some actors find it hard to detach themselves from the characters they play. That's what I realized after reading an article about Johnny Depp, who played the legendary Captain Jack Sparrow in the hit movie Pirates of Caribbean in 2003. Considered as one of today's most versatile actors, Depp is currently promoting the second installment of the movie and at the same time filming the last part of the trilogy. Depp mentioned in the interview that it was hard for him to let go of the Captain Jack Sparrow character because he had come to enjoy spending time with him or as him. He described it as one special part of himself.

Personally, I love Depp's performance very much in the first movie. He is so damn good! I still believe he should have won an Oscar for that. I have watched the movie over and over again and I still cannot believe he lost it. What happened to the Oscars there? I know Sean Penn is a good actor, but Johnny Depp is far better portraying that wacky character. I even saw Once Upon a Time in Mexico where he co-starred with Antonio Banderas. I am sorry for all Antonio Banderas fans out there but your idol's acting is no match for Johnny Depp because Depp literally stole the show in the movie. Maybe, Banderas should take up more acting lessons. As for Depp, it's not too late for him to win an Oscar because he still have two movies as part of the trilogy. Who knows, he might get another nomination from the remaining two films. But one thing is for sure, I will watch those two movies to see another breakthrough performance of Johnny Depp.
