Johnny Depp (Alice in Wonderland)
Johnny Depp made his second appearance in this list, a feat no other actors have achieved. The famous actor was born on June 9, 1963 in Owensboro, Kentucky, to John and Betty Sue Depp. Depp's father was a civil engineer, and his mother was a waitress and a housewife. Depp was the youngest child and a self-admitted outlier.
Depp and his parents relocated frequently due to his father's work, eventually settling in Florida, when he was only seven years old. The family spent nearly a year in a motel until his father was able to secure employment. Depp despised his new home and started smoking, experimenting with drugs, and self-harming at the age of 12 in response to stressful family problems.
In 1990, Depp starred in John Waters' 1950s-kitsch musical Cry-Baby, which became a cult classic and significantly altered his image. Johnny Depp earned millions more than a decade later for his portrayal of the Mad Hatter in the movie "Alice in Wonderland" – and he did not even have to work seriously for it. According to 24/7 Wall Street's analysis, Depp just spoke 600 words in total in the film, and this put Depp among the highest-paid performers in history.
