The “Pirates of the Caribbean” star has credits in a variety of films, including “Alice in Wonderland,” the more recent “Murder on the Orient Express,” “Edward Scissorhands,” and “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.” Depp was recently entailed in a legal battle with the Management Firm over lost fortunes totaling $650 million. His real estate portfolio — including a 45-acre chateau in France, five homes in the Hollywood Hills and another property in the Bahamas — was called into question at the time.
