Seems a little lowbrow for Johnny but at least he was the funniest part in it.

Depp did 21 jump street, and dresses up like a pirate in most of his movies....I don't think his brow is as high as you think

In March, a representative for A24 told TheWrap that Smith had “cast a friend” as Lapointe. Well, Depp would qualify as a friend, as the duo have hosted charity events together and their daughters went to the same school at one point. Additionally, Depp’s longtime makeup artist Joel Harlow worked on “Tusk,” while Demarest Films has produced three movies starring Depp’s fiancee, Amber Heard.

21 Jump Street was very funny and the TV show also started his career. No surprise he was in it.

PotC movies are great big budget movies that rake in millions that he also gets paid millions to do. Not Tusk level.

Smith has cast Depp's daughter to play in a series of movies (with Smith's daughter Harley Quinn).

Depp was sad that Wes Craven didn't ask him to be in New Nightmare. Craven didn't ask b/c he thought Depp was too big to consider doing it.

He's probably more fun than his dreary Burton roles make him seem.

Depp said if he had been asked to appear in "Wes Cravens a new nightmare" he would have.

Didn't read comments till after, but yeah.

So Tusk isn't worth watching? Did it even last a full week at the theater?
