  • It's because of his portrayal of Willy Wonka, isn't it. Something about it was MJ-esque

  • Johnny Depp is not dead you idiots.

  • i think you guys are cunts,before mj died you all made fun of him and never really admired him that much,after he died you're all like "king of pop" "he's a hero" "genius,artist" etc i'm sad he died but please don't be fake assholes

  • BOTH ILLUMINATI SLAVES

  • @jasonross1982 You're dumb.

  • @Rosalia100100 ur blind

  • @jasonross1982 I don't know 'bout Johnny Dep, but Michael was against the illuminatie.

  • @DoloresJoJo Haha I knew that would come off kind of strange

  • Comment removed

  • @NanoosaR you've got serious issues.

  • Come to think of it, Johnny could play Michael. He's played roles like that before (Edward Scissorhands, J.M. Barrie, Willy Wonka). THe problem is not finding a good actor, but a good SCRIPT.

  • I think Heath Ledger is a better actor but Johnny is very close to him in talent.

  • @tsb049 wow, i don't think so... (Heath Ledger thing i mean) i never even heard of the guy till he was dead, well harldy,, Depp is a living legend...and hell yeah, Depp could pull it off if he wanted to, he always does

  • @Vgirlification Not many heard of Heath because he was just about to become a breakout star. He was young and talented and if he lived he would've been one of hollywoods top actors right now.

  • i think with the right makeup, maybe a voice double for certain singing parts and alot of work and study on Johnny Depps part about who MJ really was he could definitely pull it off

  • he did indeed dance at the end of Alice in wonderland. and the moves were very MJ inspired it seemed. Johnny Depps Willy Wonka was very MJ like in an odd way but i think if he played MJ it would have to be done with more of an Edward Scissorhands type innocence. . and he allready Played J.M. Berry in finding Neverland...MJ's role model. Plus he is also interested in things like mime and charlie chaplin... just like MJ was...watch Benny and Joon. alot of his quirks in that movie are chaplin like

  • @DianaRoseClarity The dancing at the end wasn't done by Johnny. It was a dancer named David Elsewhere. You can see his videos on YouTube.

  • it would never work,i dont think johnny would be able to pull this one off, i mean i know hes a great actor but come on! he cant sing, i dont think he can dance, and hes not black

  • @Lcinsane People that play the part of real singers don't sing in the films.They use playback so it makes it more realistic.

  • @Lcinsane oh Lcinsane... i would sure love to see him try, wouldn't you? Depp has played a slew of different characters and pulled EVERY one off to a tee.... i think he could do it, and wow the shit out of us....

  • I would actually like to see this happen.

  • Johnny could play MJ easily!

  • RIP

  • Oh dear,some misconception here,unless Johnny Depp has actually snuffed it!

  • R.I.P :/

  • R.I.P.

  • what?

  • R.I.P.....

  • R.I.P. Johnny Depp

  • R.I.P. Johnny, you were the best

  • R.I.P WE WILL MISS YOU SOOO MUCH

  • R.I.P. You will be missed :(

  • R.I.P.

  • RIP Johnny you will allways be my favorite actor

  • R.I.P Sweet Prince <3

  • Rip Jhonny Depp :'(

  • When micheal jackson was alive..alot of people made jokes about him and didn't like him, they liked his music but alot of people thought micheal was some pedophile. Now he's dead everyone thinks of him as a god. It's kind sad...

  • Comment removed

  • HOLLYWOOD SHOULD START ON MAKING A FILM ABOUT MJ!!!HE WAS A INCREDIBLE AS AN SINGER,DANCER AND A HELPING LOVING INDIVIDUAL .WHO REALLY MADE A CHANGE IN THIS WORLD.NOT JUST BY HIS MUSIC BUT BY HELPING THOUSENTS OF CHILDREN AND BY INSPIRING MANY MANY PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD.

    AND I THINK THAT JOHNNY DEPP WILL BE APPROPRIATE TO DO MJ "CHARACTER" IN THIS MOVIE.

    LOVE FROM PALESTINE <3

  • OMG I LOVE JOHNNY DEPP AND MICHAEL JACKSON!!!!

  • wellaaaa, I mean obviously... hhmmmaa ...for anyone, for all of us... he's a hmmma you know... he aaamm.. it's very very.. very tragic.. you know..

    STYLISH JOHNNY

  • Comment removed

  • johnny does kinda look like the older michael though

  • Johnny is the best actor and Michael is the best singer

    they are my idols <3

  • for everyone who is trashing MJ calling him a pedofile and watever ...the man is dead.. show some respect u judgemental pricks

  • ??

    

  • Johnny Depp = King of Film

    Michael Jackson = Pedophile

  • @Benkkuful STFU

  • @Benkkuful You're 15. Stop making other fifteen year olds look stupid. Do your research on MJ and his court cases. He underwent a federal investigation and was found innocent of ALL charges. Do you know what a federal investigation is? Let's put it this way...look it up!

  • @Benkkuful Get your facts straight stupid bitch :D

    he was found INNOCENT of all charges

    now , SIT THE FUCK DOWN AND SHUT THE FUCK UP

  • @Benkkuful Your the most stupid person to have ever been born !

  • Michael Jackson = King of Pop.

    Johnny Depp = King of Film.

  • @CheekySisters Barack Obama=King of Oops.

  • @saganemc2  Love It !

  • What a motherfucking joke! Michael Jackson was a BLACK man, not a WHITE man. Johnny Depp is an actor, not a singer or dancer. And it's a complete and total insult to Michael, the Jackson family and the black community around the world to even suggest such a thing. He's a good actor, but he's nowhere near the talent level of Michael Jackson. You white people need to give it a rest.

  • @AngelsInTheMist2011 How do you know the people that made the rumors of Johnny Depp playing Michael wasn't black? Stop being a racist.Nobody likes a racist.

  • Johnny is Boss.

  • Hah i love him, he's so shy and sweet, and he likes MJ wooo, and yes hes the MJ of acting lol ;D

  • Oops forgot a word lol, to busy dreaming about Johnny

  • I would seriously do anything for Johnny, he seems such a kind and friendly, Love you for life Johnny Depp

  • He probably knew Michael just as the guy who made Thriller and he was trying to say something kind haha <3 He's such a sweet man. I love them both, Johnny and Michael. I'd never want Johnny to be MJ in a movie tho XD Honestly Johnny is terrified of dancing. Let alone him having to learn some hiphop moves! :')

  • @xOxLexyBabexOx Michael doesn't just do HipHop dancing. And Johnny Depp knows more about him than just as the guy he sang "Thriller", he payed tribute to him with a Jackson 5 song.

  • @KeesusChrist haha i just meant that i don't think he followed him as much you know ;) and yeah i know he doesn't do just that, been a fan since forever. Still, Johnny is afraid of all kinds of dances :p

  • @Darthjesus1234 he was found not guilty years ago. there was not a single clue for him to have ever done such a thing. never thought people were jealous of his money? get a life, dude.

  • You could tell he was lying when he said it was tragic because he scratched his upper lip which is a tell for men. He probably didn't like Michael and was just being polite. Too bad because I like Johnny Depp...

  • Awww! He likes MJ! That makes me love him even more!! :D

  • Best singer of the world ; Michael Jackson

    Best actor of the world ; Johnny Depp

    (: x

  • @Marijke29081958 good actor but not the best

  • @Marijke29081958 in the world*

  • @Marijke29081958

    de acuerdo

  • Love Johnny Depp and adore MJ. Thanx for posting.

  • johnny's such an amazing guy.

  • I'm such a big Michael Jackson Fan and if they make a movie about him Johnny Depp is the onliest person, who could reach Michael Jackson, you know. He's the only one, who is talented enough to empathize in Michaels character and plays him right - no other actor could do this!

    Johnny Depp is the best :)

  • johnny playn Micheal...humm, well he'll pass a better MJ than felix Washington. LOL, shit all he gotta do is shave, put on some brown make-up n he'll pass. Shit, it's been done. well the dancing too...the voice...JD a genius so we'll see wat it do.

  • I have a big respect for both Johnny and Michael. They're both geniuses you know, and as I love Johnny's movies, I love Michael's music.

  • I think everyone including all the people were shocked by Michael sudden passing. Mainly because it was out of the blue and that he left Prince, Paris and Blanket behind. Those kids are growing up without a father and blanket does not know who his mom is.

  • this would be the worst.... fail

  • Hm, would be interesting to see him play MJ indeed...

    I've seen actors try and fail amateuristically before.

    Mostly these fans thinking they know Michael Jackson and do it wrong because of that.

  • They are both part Native American, if that explains anything...

  • @WhitneyGetz mj's prt native? how'd i miss that in the bio page? damn...well there's your answer for why mj's such a freakin gud dancer. lol. but wat about johnny....hmm.

  • @WhitneyGetz Ha! Johnny is white! Michael is black. Most black people whose ancestry dates back hundreds of years in this country are mixed with Native American and European blood. You people need to get a grip!

  • Johnny could totally pull it off. MJ and Johnny are two of the most talented entertainers ever!

  • @47matazza ehhh....JD's is spectacularly talented buuuuut....and this comming frm a die hard fan ( even if u think other wise, my fuckn rolemodel) i don't know...i'll have to agree with him. MJ can't be re-runed 100% by nobody. but surprise me if im wrong. but id still like to see how it all goes. u kno, imma support JD all the way no matter how off it may seem.l:{

  • lol bitches commenting on this either insulting Michael Jackson or Johnny Depp,

    can literally get the fuck out,

    k?

  • watch your pen Johnny! Vaclav Klaus is in background 0:33

  • Sorry, but no one can act Michael Jackson. it's just impossible. Only Michael Do It.

  • @MJFORALLTIME1958 If anyone can do it, Johnny can. In fact he's the only one I would ever see as successfully playing him.

  • Omg someone has to make that happen!!!!

    Get johnny playing mj and I think I might actually pass out

    Man I love this guy....

    He can literally play anyone!!!!

  • Is it a coincidence that MJ was Tim Burton's first choice to play ol' Eddie Scissor-hands?

  • @gut197 yeah if they make the movie they shouldn't put the rumours in because they are not true and yeah johnny would be great at playing michael although johnny always says that he doesn't like dancing :D which is one of the talents michael was famous for, if he does play michael in later years, it will be very interesting :D x

  • Johnny could definitely play Michael Jackson, I just hope that if there ever is a movie that it's accurate and doesn't include all those rumors

  • Johnnys so nice

  • i totally understand how johnny couldn't play the role cuz he's in the least bit african american. however, he's an acting genius. he could get some parts down, honestly

  • I love Johnny Depp, but I'm glad this was just a rumor. Michael was an African American, so if ever they did make a movie, an African American should be hired to play him. It's common sense, really...

  • No white girl shouldn't play Michael Jackson, thats just redundant and absolutely absurd. You wan't a black guy to play Elvis or Beatles? The only actor who can play Michael is Johnny lol.Get the fuck out of here. Like Johnny and i'm not racist, but thats ridiculous.

  • @Impetrate420Justice GUY* not girl

  • @Impetrate420Justice Johnny doesn't want to play him so you better comment suck some other actors dick.

  • @Impetrate420Justice Couldn't agree more...like a Black James Bond, or a white Shaft. Doesn't matter how good someone's range is they can't cross that boundary.

  • johnny depp can play ANY and i mean ANY role as he is so amazingly talented

  • A movie about Michael jackson's life would be impossible. It would be way too long and it would have to be in almost perfect detail. Seriously, rather a few year series

  • wow. "That's such an obtuse rumor that I haven't had the pleasure of cultivating." One of the most articulate, intelligent man I've ever heard.

  • @moviemusicfan1001xo to find those kinds of people in hollywood is impressive

  • Johnny Depp is the greatest actor of his time but he doesn't like to dance, and what is Michael's trademark? Hmm.....

  • Johnny Depp turned into a real faker.

  • @endgammer why?

  • WTF am the only one apalled at this in a bad way!! why are they even trying to give mj a life movie! i mean that movie would be like 10 hrs long and there will be so many people playing mj at every stage of his life. it would be freakin hard to keep up although if i had to see someone attempt michaels's genius it would have to be johnny depp

  • I CAN'T SEE ANYONE PLAYING MICHAEL BUT JOHNNY..HE'S PERFECT!.. :D

  • If there ever were a movie about MJ the only actor I think could pull it off would be Johnny. He does a tremendous job with every character he plays.

    Btw, he looks soooo good in this video. Mmm mmm good.

  • i dnt understand a word

  • he is the "MJ" of acting. if u know what i mean

  • @mconstanta Totally! he can pull off Liza Minnelli if he wanted to..

  • @lilpinkyluv he could easily pull of anything! he's simply the best there is. :)

  • @mconstanta what is a "MJ"??

  • @tigress1girl lol.. MJ is Michael Jackson (i hope u know him;p ). and by that i meant that he's the best, he can simply do anything, like Michael Jackson :)

  • @mconstanta That's what I've been saying to everyone. If music has Kings and Queens. Depp is definitely the King, and a modern day hero. He's such a high profile man, and delivers beyond our expectations, he brings people together. Depp is the common denominator for people in all walks of life just as Michael Jackson was through his music. Because of these men, people put aside their cultural, religious, gender, lifestyle differences and through their work, the world becomes one big family!

  • @mconstanta so true, he's genius i love them both

  • @mconstanta He touches children on screen?

  • @jsrnash12 no, he is the best. and FYI MJ didn't touch children on screen and this was proven. u should know that by now

  • @mconstanta though I understand your point and agree you should know the following

    winning a court case =/= being innocent or that it proves anything

    it only means that either

    a) you have more money

    b) the other side didn't have enough to prove you guilty. Not that you proved yourself innocent, just that they didn't have enough to prove you guilty. There is a difference

    the more you know

  • @BlueStrikeP i get what u mean and i agree it can be true. there's also a c) point though u didn't mention; they proved u innocent cause u actually are;p

  • How hot is Johnny. He was my second crush at 7 years old.

  • Who was your first crush? @YearoftheButterfly

  • I bet he could pull it off. He looks slightly like John Dillinger. Was great in "Blow" too.

  • Johnny is a legend yes,but MJ is an even bigger one,he's the king of pop! MJ is MJ .. no one else could ever be him. R.I.P Michael! <3 do you think jihnny was being funny on here i cant tell.. :/

  • ..I think Johnny could pull off playing as MJ, I mean his Willy Wonka performance was pretty much MJ anyway.

  • to all people who call mj abuser~fuck your mother and your whole family!

  • omg he is so onest & me 2 i felt so sad i cried alot cause m.j & johnny are the graetest men i ever seen!

  • i LOVE johnny, he's so modest.

  • no one can be Michael Jackson.. no one! There was only him, and there will forever be just him! <3

  • i hate it when actors try to act off screen.... change of heart

  • @orangeeye13 im interested by what you say there, what do you mean exactly?

  • johnny was supposed to play Freddie Mercury but noooo...! they chose sacha boron cohen! AAH! :((((

  • Comment removed

  • johnny can do it...better than anyone....

    he has that dainty little feminine body and shit already.

  • thats a challenge but he wouldn't watch it after..

  • Why does he talk like that? He lives in Europe, right? Did he just pick up on accent for the English language? lol

    and he sounds like one of those people who believed all the hype, what a shame

  • @britrob24

    What 'hype'? That michael jackson had talent? He did douche nugget.

  • @LittleEmoBoy001

    that's not even what I was saying... Get some common sense before you go on TRYING to insult people

  • Why do all successful people look lost for words?

  • hmm ale Edwarda miał grac Michael także, w ostatecznosci wzieli JD. Poza tym fajnie by było jakby J. zagrał Michaela.

  • no one can play Michael Jackson sweet heart , wakeup honey , just angels can play him .

  • Comment removed

  • U can tell he isn't a MJ fan.

  • Seriously, J D can play ANYthing. just sayin.

    Gotta love the man <3

  • Johnny Depp can play beyonce if he puts his mind to it. MJ fans are really terrible.

  • I'd definitely love to see Johnny as MJ!!!! He can play any character very well!!!!

  • HHahAHH DEAR me.

  • Lol, it sounds like he has no idea who MJ was, but he was just going along with it.

  • @sonic16913 he was a MJ fan, so he has respect and love 4 MJ

  • oh god i really hope he does play him in a movie.I imagine it would be fantastic

  • I would love Johnny depp as Mj ^^

  • Shit*

  • Lol he didn't give a shut about Michael lmaooo

  • LOL that would be so frickin cool if he would play him! OMG

  • Would people not take up unnecessary space insulting each other. It's totally pointless to hurl insults at a stranger and no one else needs to read it. It's stupid.

  • Three people were distracted by Johnny's insightful awesomeness that they missed the thumbs up! haha

  • mrwarble . . . i hope i got that right. just got your note . . . thanks for sending. oh yeah, i have absolutely no problem with J Depp playing MJackson . . . i think it could actually really work. guess what i found out in my 14 mnths of research. MJ adored Edward Scissorhands and had the actual scissors . . . I watched the movie to see why he would have liked it, i had never seen it all the way thru, OMG, it's AMAZING how similar Ed Scissorhands story is to MJ's. i'm writing an essay on it

  • in regard to how the black panther party might feel, i, of course, coudln't answer for them. i know what vitiligo looks like as my cousin had it. you are right, it looks like a calico cat. if you look at earlier pictures of MJ, it's there on his hands, where they say it started, forearms; you can see some on his face in earlier pics, too. now, say he did bleach his skin, which i'm not saying he did, but even "if" he did, i could undertsand. his entire worth was his stage presence

  • @sanantoniomimi I'll have to do some research on that. If he did have vitiligo then yeah I can understand him doin whatever to not look like a human calico. But all I was meant earlier was that considering how MJ used to look before he died, it wouldn't have hurt anything for Johnny Depp who looks similar to Michael to play the part if he wanted to take on the role. That's all I'm sayin. If keepin it black is that big of a deal, then maybe Terrence Howard should play as MJ.

  • One last comment,. Then again, I would not want to watch a film about Michael's private life. I learned about the man through his work and would love to see a film about that, which there was one. I would not want to see a film about how much pain the media put him through. I guess this is what Johnny meant as not being his idea of a film. Michael was not a character who you make up in paper. He was a human being, and not someone to make fun of even after death. Much Love.

  • I do think Johnny could play Michael as an older Michael because Johnny has the ability to portray his characters in a way that he won't be judgmental towards them and really takes the time to understand them, and the audience gets that too. Most people love his characters, no matter how unique they are. Now, to say that Johnny will the film, who knows. Johnny really doesn't like watching his own films, just like Michael didn't like looking in the mirror.

  • The reason they asked JD about MJ is because a couple of their work tend to collide, Edward Scissorhands, Willy Wonka remake being some of them. Edward was admired for his uniqueness but then framed and wanted for dead in the end. MJ was a fan of the movie. Willy Wonka remake, a man that isolated himself in his factory after others tried to steal his work. At the time of the movie, there was a talk that Burton based it on MJ. Also, both JD and MJ are very unique artists.

  • MICHAEL JACKSON IS BLACK!! HOW CAN JOHNNY DEPP PLAY HIM. JOHNNY IS AN EXCELLENT ACTOR BUT HE CANNOT PLAY MICHAEL, THAT'S JUST ABSURD!!!

  • @grintsgirl05 bitch please, Michael Jackson was white as snow before he died. He surrounded himself with upper class white people, and did white things. MJ sure as fuck wasn't hip hop, he didn't have mansion parties like Diddy and surround himself with rappers and ball players. The man obviously wanted to be white, so show some respect to Michael and let his character be played by the skinny, pale-ass white dude he wanted to be.

  • @MrWable25 First of all you fugly prick you don't know Michael Jackson personally so how the hell would you know if he wanted to be white or not. AND SECOND OF ALL I KNOW YOU ARE NOT CALLING ME A BITCH YOU PUNK ASS, UGLY ASS, STUPID ASS, IGNORANT ASS NIGGA!!!!!!!!

  • @grintsgirl05 If you thought I was black than that goes to show that anybody can play a black role. You can call me ignorant, ignorant as in I slang, talk shit and don't give a fuck. But I'm white, and yes I half jokingly called you a bitch.  But if you wanna take it personal then fuck you with your crotch rot smellin, hoe ass.

  • @MrWable25 Very clever asshole thanks for repeating the same insults already told you. Come up with better insults. So your dismissed!!! Thanks and goodbye

  • @grintsgirl05 I'm just sayin, callin me ignorant don't hurt my feelins any considering I didn't give a shit. And yes, you are a BEEYOTCH of a bitch!!! Truth hurts don't it!? Fuck you very much, bye bye now.

  • @MrWable25 Actually you're wrong AGAIN!!! Calling me a bitch doesn't hurt me either Bitch is my middle name dumb ass.
