How many more Depp/Burton films are we going to see? I like both of those guys, but come on, it seems that they can’t get enough of each other.

When will Tim Burton ever do an original film again?

  1. How many original films has he done? I’m counting them on my fingers, and right now I’m only holding up two fingers. What else?

  3. God… do you want a full list? ;P

    Sweeney Todd (Mr. T himself!)
    Pirates of the Caribbean (Jack Sparrow)
    Corpse Bride (Victor)
    Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (Willy Wonka)
    The Libertine (Rochester)
    Finding Neverland (Sir James Matthew Barry)
    Secret Window (Mort Rainey)
    Chocolat (Roux)
    Benny & Joon (Sam)
    Sleepy Hollow (Ichabod Crane)
    Ed Wood (Ed Wood)
    Nick of Time (Gene Watson)
    Edward Scissorhands (Edward)
    Cry-Baby (Wade “Cry-Baby” Walker)
    A Nightmare on Elm Street (Glen Lantz)

    And a dozen or so more. Most of his movies are with Tim Burton. Pretty much, all of them are good, but I DID NOT like Ed Wood. I’d check out most of his movies.

    Some of these titles I remembered, but I got the rest off of imdb.com. It’s very helpful.

    Depp is currently filming:
    Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, directed by Tim Burton and will play the Mad Hatter

    The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, directed by Terry Gilliam and will play one of the four Tony’s.

    Hope that helped!
