Johnny Depp continues to be one of Hollywood's best earning and most popular actors despite the several controversies he has had to face over the last few years.
With franchises including Pirates of the Caribbean and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them under his belt and a long-term working relationship with Tim Burton which has resulted in over nine films, it's fair to say that the actor can be expected to have an impressive net worth.

What is Johnny Depp's net worth?
According to Forbes, Johnny Depp is believed to have a net worth of around $48 million, although other outlets have suggested his fortune may be higher, even over the $100 million range.
Although, considering how some of the A-lister's most successful films have made more than $3.4 billion in America and $8.7 billion worldwide, his wealth is not necessarily equal to his huge worth in the film industry.

During the trial, it was revealed that between 2003 and 2016, the star earned around $650 million.

Although, as the trial also revealed when The Management Group countersued the actor, the star's expensive lifestyle often significantly decreased his earnings.

However, as previously mentioned, the 60-year-old also appears to have some significant financial expenses. During his lawsuit against The Management Group, it was revealed the star was once spending around $2 million per month on his lifestyle which included paying wages for a 40-person-strong team, private jet flights, and significant spending on expensive wine.

In 2004 the actor set up a production company, Infinitum Nihil, with his sister Christi Dembrowski. It has so far co-produced several of the actor's films, such as The Lone Ranger and Dark Shadows, plus other projects including 2011's Hugo.

In the past, Johnny bought a $950,000 horse farm in his home state of Kentucky in 1995, before selling it for $1 million just over five years later. However, the actor had a change of heart and bought it again for $2 million in 2005 as a gift for his mother, who lived there until her death in 2016.
Recently, the star has been spending a lot of time in the UK, residing in his country house in Somerset. The much talked-about star, who has laid low after his headline-making court case against his former spouse Amber Heard, gave an interview to Somerset Life revealing what it was which attracted him to the area.
"I just love places with character," the Pirates franchise star said. "British people are cool and will greet you as if you are a neighbor — without going over the top. I like going to places, seeing things and meeting people — but I'm not the great extrovert that people think."
