His greatest roles that have truly brought out his versatility and range have included playing Edward Scissorhands, Captain Jack Sparrow, Sweeney Todd, and more. Two years after a verdict was announced in Depp’s favor, the Oscar-nominee is finally ready to make a major Hollywood comeback and it involves The Amazing Spider-Man director Marc Webb.
