Depp: 'I don’t like watching myself'

Rex Features

Johnny Depp has revealed that he never watches any of his films.

The Ed Wood actor explained why on David Letterman's US chatshow last night while promoting his latest movie Public Enemies, The Huffington Post reports.

He said: "In a way, once my job is done on a film, it's really none of my business. I stay as far away as I possibly can... I don't like watching myself."

Depp added that his children, ten-year-old Lily-Rose and Jack, seven, are bigger fans of his pictures than he is, saying: "My kids have seen more of my films than I have."

Earlier this week, he confirmed that he will collaborate with director Tim Burton for an eighth time on a big screen version of gothic ’60s soap opera Dark Shadows.

Public Enemies opens in cinemas on July 3.
