HBO's Succession star Brian Cox reveals why he passed on Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean movie - and working with Johnny Depp.
Brian Cox had been in the business of acting for over fifty years before getting his biggest breakout role as Logan Roy in HBO's Succession – and in all that time, he's never been shy about giving his opinion on other actors.
"It would have been a moneyspinner but, of all the parts in the film, it was the most thankless," Cox explained. Then he got to the subject of the film's lead actor:"And Depp, personable though I'm sure he is, is so overblown – I mean Edward Scissorhands! Let's face it, if you come on with hands like that and pale, scarred-face makeup, you don't have to do anything. And he didn't.
