Now in his forties, happily settled in France with his longtime love Vanessa Paradis, Johnny Depp would seem to have it all, yet his success is hard won. "Johnny Depp: A Modern Rebel" describes a complex, tortured young man whose troubled childhood and rebellious, drug-infused adolescence ill-prepared him for the life of a celebrity heart-throb. Replete with details of his bad boy antics, romantic romps, and a string of volatile relationships, including his affairs with Winona Ryder, and supermodel Kate Moss. The book also provides a serious analysis of Depp's career, and the fiercely independent, artistically adventurous roles with which he has chosen to define himself both as an actor and a man. This revised and updated edition includes information on all Johnny Depp's recent and forthcoming films, including his hugely popular role as Captain Jack Sparrow in "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" and the film's hotly-awaited sequel; his starring role as Willie Wonka in Tim Burton's remake of the classic "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Finding Neverland" in which Depp stars as Peter Pan author J.M. Barrie.
