JOHNNY DEPP TERRIFIED OF OWN BLOOD

Johnny Depp is scared by the sight of his own blood. The Hollywood star - who plays a murderous barber in new musical film 'Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street' - is scared of cutting himself and wary of visiting the doctors because being "prodded and poked" makes him squeamish. Speaking at the US premiere of 'Sweeney Todd.' at New York's Ziegfeld Theatre on Monday, he said: "There's a lot of blood-letting in the film but I like to keep mine inside me thank you very much. I'm not very good with the sight of my own blood. "Nobody likes to be prodded or poked in any way, whether it's in the doctor's office or in jail." When asked if he has ever lost a lot of blood, he joked: "Yes, but I found it!" Despite using gallons of fake blood during filming, director Tim Burton shares Depp's fear of bleeding. He admitted: "I always look away when I draw blood at the doctor's office. The blood we use is very theatrical. That's one of the reasons it still feels like a play to me. The realistic edge is off." Jayne Wisener, who play's Sweeney's daughter Johanna in the movie, revealed she enjoyed the gory scenes. She said: "The blood was a bit redder than ketchup. Did I try it? No, but maybe I should have. Do you think I should've licked it off Johnny's face?"

Johnny Depp considered quitting Hollywood when his daughter fell ill. The actor, whose eight-year-old daughter Lily-Rose was hospitalised after reportedly contracting the E.coli bacterial infection earlier this year, insists nothing matters more to him than his family. Johnny, who also has a five-year-old son Jack John with long-term partner Vanessa Paradis, said: "I wasn't sure if I would be able to come back. My kids and my girl - nothing else matters in life. My kids are very grounded, not monster-like at all. We keep discipline under control. "When I was younger I used to play a lot of practical jokes and I p****d my mother off. But the greatest advice I ever got was from her, 'Don't take s**t from anybody. Ever.' And that has stuck with me and I hope my kids never, ever have to take s**t off anybody either." Johnny, who postponed filming new musical 'Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street' when Lily-Rose was ill, also revealed he was nervous about his singing scenes in the movie. He is quoted as saying: "I think I was probably more frightened than anyone. I've never even tried karaoke. It scares the hell out of me. I've never been that drunk - and I've been drunk. I didn't know if I could sing. I did these demos in my friend's garage studio because I didn't know if I could hit a note and to be honest I really didn't. I tried to use Iggy Pop as my inspiration. "Someone is probably weeping after watching my performance."

Johnny Depp is to reprise his role as eccentric late journalist Hunter S. Thompson (left) in a new movie. Depp starred as close friend Thompson in the movie of his first novel 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas' in 1998. In 2000, independent production company Shooting Gallery - which has since shut-down - and SPi Films bought the rights to his autobiographical novel 'The Rum Diary', and the same year announced plans to make the movie with Depp and Nick Nolte starring. It has now been revealed that Graham King, the Oscar-winning producer of 'The Departed', has acquired the rights and will produce the movie, starring Depp, with Warner Independent Pictures. Though no definite start date has been set, it is hoped filming will begin when Depp has completed his next movie, Mira Nair's crime drama 'Shantaram'. 'Fear and Loathing.' star Benicio Del Toro was reportedly asked to make his directorial debut with 'The Rum Diary', while Josh Hartnett was also linked to the project. But according to their representatives Del Toro, Nolte and Hartnett are no longer involved with the film. Eccentric alcoholic Thompson created Gonzo journalism in the 1970s. The style of reporting involves the journalist becoming so involved in events they themselves become central figures in the story. He committed suicide in February 2005 aged 67. On August 20 that year Depp financed a private ceremony, according to Thompson's wishes, in which the writer's ashes were fired from a cannon in Aspen to the tune of Bob Dylan's 'Mr. Tambourine Man'. Thompson wrote 'The Rum Diary' in the early 60s when he was just 22, but it was not published until 1998, after the success of 'Fear and Loathing.'.
