How to portray odd character like johnny depp does?

You need to become a really good actor first - then specialise if you get the chance.

It's not something you can train for - Depp can just DO it.

But do try not to be weird and creepy in real life. People have to be comfortable working with you, and I'm told that Depp is very normal in real life. Most actors are. If people think you're naturally weird, they won't offer you roles - be normal.

easy, like all other acting. you create the owtward appearance of the character, costume, makeup,etc Settle on a voice for the character,create manerisms for him and then you take thiw shell and live in it as JAck Straw or sherelock holmes or whomeverl It is called acitng. All thebest roles and the odd ones, non?
